► Product Overview Gold Tone AC-6+ Acoustic Composite Banjitar — Acoustic-Electric 6-String Banjo with SMP Pickup This is the Gold Tone AC-6+, a 6-string banjitar (banjo-guitar) designed to let guitarists step straight into banjo territory with zero learning curve. Tuned exactly like a standard guitar (E-A-D-G-B-E), it combines the bright, percussive snap of a banjo with the familiar fretboard of a six-string. The AC-6+ is built around Gold Tone's molded composite rim and resonator, a design choice that delivers consistent projection while shrugging off the temperature and humidity swings that traditional wood-rim banjos struggle with. The result is a travel-friendly, gig-ready instrument that holds its setup remarkably well. The "+" model adds a built-in SMP sliding magnetic pickup with volume control, mounted between the strings near the bridge. Plug it in for stage and studio work, or unplug and let the natural composite tone project on its own. == SPECIFICATIONS == - Model: Gold Tone AC-6+ (Acoustic Composite Banjitar) - Configuration: 6-string, guitar-tuned (E-A-D-G-B-E) - Country of Origin: China - Rim: 11" Composite - Resonator: 13" Composite (removable for open-back tone) - Head: 11" Remo Weatherking (smooth, banjo head only) - Neck: Maple - Fingerboard: Rosewood (radiused) - Frets: 21 medium - Nut: 1-11/16" ZeroGlide Nut - Inlays: Dot - Tuners: Sealed guitar-style, branded "Gold Tone" - Tailpiece: Gold Tone Terminator (accepts ball- or loop-end strings) - Armrest: Gold Tone engraved - Bridge: Maple with ebony cap - Brackets: 16 - Pickup: SMP sliding magnetic pickup with volume control - Truss Rod: Two-way adjustable == CONDITION == Overall: Very Good - Body / Rim: Clean overall - Neck: Straight - Frets: Approximately 70-80% remaining - Hardware: Some tarnish on metal parts consistent with use The instrument plays as intended and is ready for stage, studio, or campfire use.
