The CC-100R is a newbie player's dream come true. This modestly priced full-featured banjo comes with a maple neck with a two-way adjustable truss rod and separate rosewood fretboard, a hard-rock maple rim with twin coordinator rods, and it's convertible. The natural-blonde finished CC-100R+/L has a resonator that's easily removed for true open-back playing, helping new players become comfortable with different playing styles with just one banjo. Gold Tone's superb factory setup in Florida further adds to the CC-100R+/L's value.
