Crafted in collaboration with virtuoso banjoist Béla Fleck, the Gold Tone Mastertone ML-1 Missing Link is a high-performance, 5-string baritone banjo. This low-tuned beauty boasts a 12-inch, rolled-brass tone ring topped with a Remo Black Suede head, supported by a 12-inch, 3-ply Canadian maple rim and a notched tension hoop. The ML-1 is one of the most playable baritone banjos you'll ever pick up, thanks to its slim hard-rock Canadian maple neck and lightning-fast, compound-radius ebony fingerboard.
