Review: Nice! - I am extremely happy with this banjo. Just received it in a totally smashed outer box. The inside box and banjo were fine. The tone, volume, set up and play ability are amazing. I added a Gold Tone armrest which looks great and is comfortable. Buy one, you'll love it. Michael
Review: Seems to be Quality - An entry level instrument, it sounds good. It was a gift for my grandson. He’s already made a video of his progress after having it only two days ago.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thrilled
*by J***S on September 5, 2019*

I am literally thrilled with this banjo. If you're looking for a featherweight 5-string banjo that sounds great, has an excellent set-up right out of the box, and has a very affordable price, the Gold Tone AC-1 is a winner. Whether clawhammer or Scruggs-style is your method, the banjo delivers superb sound for its price and weight. If you're a beginner and you're not sure you'll stick with it, the AC-1 is an excellent choice. It won't break the bank and you won't have to fight the instrument to play it. If you're a veteran player that wants to shed the typical heaviness of a Bluegrass banjo due to age or injury, the AC-1 will satisfy. As a travel banjo for camping trips, beach bonfires or risky airline handling, the Gold Tone AC-1 fills the bill. It's structurally made well and looks good, too. My only suggestion for improvement would be to add a strap button to the heel of the instrument. Other banjo players may make fun of you if you add your own strap button to the heel. Ignore them and do it if you want.
