Gold Tone ES-Banjitar: Electric Banjitar with Hard Case

The ES-Banjitar was designed in response to player demand for a solid-body 6-string banjo-guitar suited for stage use. It delivers the familiar fast banjo response while retaining the comfort and tuning of a guitar (EADGBE), making it perfect for guitarists wanting to add banjo tones to their playing without learning a new instrument.

Its hollow sound chamber ensures authentic banjo timbre even when unplugged, while the dual-pickup system (stacked humbucker at neck and hidden humbucker under the head at the bridge) gives players versatile amplified tones. The tobacco sunburst finish, cream ABS binding, and chrome hardware provide a professional stage-ready look. With a 25-1/2" scale length, aluminum tone ring, and smooth action, the ES-Banjitar is equally suited for country, blues, jazz, or pop. Final assembly and professional setup are completed at the Gold Tone factory in Florida. Available as a left-handed model.

Best For
Guitarists looking for a banjo-like voice without learning 5-string banjo, stage performers seeking versatile tones, and multi-genre players incorporating banjo into country, rock, jazz, or folk settings.
