Product: GOLD STAR BANJO - FLAMED MAPLE - SUNBURST
Item Number: GF-300FE

Saga has recreated the ideal bluegrass banjo of the 1930's in the new GF-300FE professional quality 5-string banjo. The GF-300FE represents the best value in today's market of professional quality instruments.

Gold Star has duplicated the design of classic banjos by improving upon certain areas of structural weaknesses and by using only the best materials for each instrument. Highly flamed maple is used for the neck and resonator, Brazilian rosewood for the triple-ply bound fingerboard inlaid with traditionally Flying Eagle pattern, and by using brass instead of pot-metal for the tension hoop and flange. At the heart of each instrument, and the secret to their legendary tone lies a thee-ply rock maple rim and a special alloy, cast bronze tone ring, providing all the volume and tone for any situation without unpleasant overtones - like other banjos on the market today.

With a new Gold Star, you are sure to get an instrument that not only sounds amazing but looks incredible, too. Many of today's best banjo players are discovering why Gold Star has the tone and the drive for any musical situation and when you play the Gold Star, you'll know the reason.
