The Return of a Legend
The Gold Star GF-100W banjo brings the storied craftsmanship of the 1930s flathead models back to life. Inspired by the legendary designs of the past, it carries the spirit of bluegrass tradition into the hands of today’s players. Built for tone, power, and precision, it delivers the crisp, driving sound sought after by professionals and enthusiasts alike.
Time-Honored Craftsmanship, Modern Precision
A bound mahogany resonator with inlaid double concentric rings gives it a rich, classic look, while the deluxe 3-ply rock maple rim ensures exceptional projection. The cast 20-hole bell bronze tone ring enhances sustain and clarity, making each note ring with authority. With deluxe Gotoh tuners and a Presto tailpiece, stability and tuning accuracy come standard.
Sound That Stands the Test of Time
Strung with GHS PF140 J.D. Crowe Signature Set strings, this banjo is ready for the stage from the moment it’s played. Whether picking lightning-fast rolls or laying down steady rhythm, the GF-100W delivers a commanding presence. A legacy reborn, it honors the past while driving bluegrass into the future.
