@guitmartiman I'm glad you like it. I love the sound of the GT, I need to do more with it. I started a new company escorting oversize loads cross country and have put my music on the back burner for a while. Work has turned from a part time to a full time, I might put more cars on. I have turned down a lot of loads that I could have had if I had another driver.
I found the same banjo about a month ago and I'm dying to get it. I'm not a banjo player, I'm mostly a guitar player, so when I saw this I had to play with it - being it's a 6-string. I was very surprised with the way it sounded, I'm glad you enjoy it.
I plugged it in as well and it sounds very cool, but unplugged, it sounds pretty awesome. It's really not a tradition banjo in the least, but it's real fun to play.
There are several companies that make the 6 string version, but GoldTone makes one of the best for the money. One of the guys on Rascal Flatts plays one and it gives thier music that special southern sound. This is way I tried one, I love mine and I'm sure you will too.
@ShotGunRoleModel I agree with you, I have a lot of fun. It sound great in the background of someone else playing and singing. I works great for lead or rhythm.
I love the sound of the banjo, thats why I got this. I hope to ues it for dubbing on my music. Your right I have seen it picked figer style, it does sound better. There is a lot of bands using the GoldTone for that banjo sound.
Thank's for you comment. I'm like you a banjo is a banjo. This sounds a litlte bit like a banjo, but not as good. I have played it many times with a group and everyone says it sounds great. I still like yhe 5 string best.
It just like a 6 string electric guitar amd uses the same amp. You can slide the pickup up and down inside the drum for a different sound. It also has a volume control on the banjo. I like the sound of it unpluged, I play it though an open mic and it is awsome.
Nice pickin'! I just bought a GT-750, and I love it!

Thank You Very Much!
This is an old Lester and Flatts tune. I listened to it so many times on Beverly Hill Billys, but always enjoyed it.

very cool.
that thing sounds good.
i bet if you finger-picked it, you wouldnt be able to tell the difference between that and a 5-string banjo.
i have a tenor 4-string banjo, and when finger-pickes sounds like a 5-string.
great playing. i could just see jed & granny & jethro & ellie-may comming up the road. ha ha.

I've had this for some time now and love it. This thing has an amazing sound in the higher frets.
Thank's

I'm not too sure about this, Buster. I heard a dojo to and didn't care for that much either. This hybrid stuff doesn't make it to my ear.
Thanks for the chance to hear it though.

Awsome! Do you use a reg. guitar amp to plug it in or is there some other banjo amp.

No I haven't, If I do I'd have to name her Myrna, because of you know who.
Thank's for your kindly comments. I have already popped a button or two, I wont let it swell my head though.
