GT-500 (Banjitar)

See which artists are playing this: Michael Fath, Drew Davis

Excellent acoustic volume and good sustain , This is our original banjitar. This model is exactly like the GT-750 except uses a steel tone ring  (instead of brass) and a plain maple resonator (instead of curl) Springsteen bought two of these for his 2007 European solo tour!

Listen to "House in New Orleans" by John Pinamonti in our sound clips (find more at his website http://www.pinamonti.com)

The GT-500 6 string for guitar players is traditionally styled with a maple rim, maple resonator, maple neck and a rosewood radiused fingerboard. The unique Gold Tone SMP pick-up accenuates the bass notes and provides piercing banjo-style treble. This model has excellent acoustic volume and good sustain.
