Product Description

The 5-string Cello Banjo (CEB-5) is one of the newest additions to the Gold Tone line. The Cello Banjos have received more attention than any Gold Tone model ever introduced and has quickly become the newest trend in banjo music. The CEB-5 is played just as a 5-string banjo would, so all of the familiar tunes and playing techniques would apply. The 24-3/4 �� scale length allows the CEB-5 to be tuned to open-A with light gauge strings (CES5 Light) and open-G with a set of medium gauge strings (CES5 Medium). The 14” body is loud and the rolled brass tone ring amplifies its punchy tone. The CEB-5 features a wide maple neck (1.57” at nut) and 3-ply maple rim, ebony fingerboard with MOP inlays, GT Master planetary tuners, nickel plated hardware, dual coordinator rods, and a Strightline tailpiece. It uses nylon high tension classical guitar strings. Whether you are new to the banjo or are looking for a new sound to add to your current banjo arsenal, the CEB-5 may be just what you are looking for! The CEB-5 includes a Deluxe Hard Shell Case.

Gold Tone CEB-5 Cello Banjo (Five String, Vintage Mahogany) Review

I bought a lefty cello banjo (special order from my local music shop, where they may think I am insane), and it has the most gorgeous sound I have heard. A full octave lower, deep, rich tone.

She's a little finicky -- if you play too hard the bass string will vibrate against the frets -- and the neck is somewhat shorter and wider than a standard banjo, so you will miss notes for a while until you get used to it.

I've found that brushes don't sound as good, so my clawhammer playing has begun to cut back on those, replacing them with a plain note and a pluck on the fifth string. Two-finger picking really makes this instrument shine. Crisp notes that just hang in the air.
