Product: GOLDSTAR BANJO
Item Number: GF-100W or GF-100F
Most banjo players agree that the ideal bluegrass banjo was the flathead
built in very limited quantities during the 1930's. To meet this demand
and to offer it at a price any player could afford, Saga Musical
Instruments introduced the original GF-100 banjo in the early 1970's.
Ever since these banjos were discontinued in the late 1980's due to
costly maufacturing methods in Japan, they have continued to be topics
of discussion for their legendary sound and value. It's 2005 and the new
Gold Star GF-100HF (Hearts and Flowers)is back and better than ever
before. Each instrument has that same great tone that banjos players
like Tom Adams are looking for.
