Probably a little controversial I know, but I figured since im a mandoplayer 1st and foremost that it would still be semi-approppriate. #Plus you guys have always offered excellent advice.
Im looking to try my hand at tenor banjo and Ive been eyeing the goldtones on elderly. #I was fortunate enough to try a goldtone cripple creek tenor at Picker's Supply in Fredericksburg, VA and was very suprised by its playability and tone for only $450...and elderly sells them for $365! #Maybe the one I played was a rare good one, I dunno.
Im just curious if anyone has played one and/or its more expensive brother the IT-250 which is a couple hundred more. #Im not looking to spend a lot, but I might be willing if the quality difference is significant enough. #Also I'd prefer an open-back to a resonator.....I dont want to anger others dormmates too bad
And I also like the idea of labeling this as the "tenor" section.
