Gold Tone AC-6: Acoustic Composite Banjitar
The Gold Tone AC-6 Acoustic Composite Banjitar bridges the gap between banjo brilliance and guitar familiarity. Expertly crafted with a durable composite rim and lightweight design, it offers the bright snap and projection of a traditional banjo while maintaining the comfortable playability of a standard six-string guitar. With tuning in EADGBE, guitarists can instantly achieve authentic banjo tone without learning new fingerings.
Built with a nato or maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, the AC-6 delivers smooth fretting, great response, and consistent tone clarity. The Remo LC Smooth head enhances resonance and brightness, while the Terminator tailpiece ensures secure string anchoring and tuning stability. Available in both the AC-6 Mini for compact travel convenience and the AC-6+ for full-scale stage performance with its SMP magnetic pickup and volume control, this series provides tonal versatility for any setting.
Perfect for guitarists exploring banjo sounds, traveling musicians, and performers, the AC-6 offers unmatched value, projection, and comfort. Whether played acoustically or plugged in (on the AC-6+ model), it delivers Gold Tone’s signature balance of innovation, craftsmanship, and tone — all at an accessible price.
Each instrument is professionally set up by Gold Tone USA for ideal tonal response, tuning accuracy, and smooth playability straight out of the case.
