At the 2004 IBMA show, Bob Carlin and Wayne met to discuss the possibilities of a signature model 12" openback banjo. The features requested by Bob were a 12" pot assembly, scooped ebony fingerboard, specific neck profile dimensions and a nut width of 1-5/16”, a rolled brass tone ring, and a No Knot tailpiece. Bob personally made a trip to our Florida factory for the designing where Bob and Wayne discussed every possible specification and tested prototypes. Every detail was fine tuned. Decided features included a 12” Renaissance banjo head, the mock dowel stick/coordinator rod configuration, a custom headstock design with ebony overlay and recessed truss rod cover, the GT Master planetary tuners, and the “hot dog” armrest. In order to complete the project, Gold Tone would invest in all new 12" tooling to assure perfectly fitted parts. A year later we introduced.... the Gold Tone Bob Carlin Signature Model BC-350! Bob Carlin is most well known in the banjo world for his incredible tone. The Gold Tone BC Series featuring the 12” body provides Bob with more mid-range and bass response than the standard 11” designs. Whether you are new to openback banjo or want to add a new sound to your banjo arsenal, the BC-350 is an excellent choice! Minimize

Soon after the T5 hit the market in 2005, the music industry press nominated it for Electric Guitar of the Year. And Acoustic Guitar of the Year. Which pretty much sums it all up: the T5 is an electric/acoustic that defines the hybrid category. Today, the versatile T5 is the top-selling semi-hollow body guitar and the only one that uses all-magnetic pickups for both its electric and acoustic tones. That means real acoustic tones, real electric tones, and everything in between. The T5 also features proprietary Taylor pickups, 5-Way switch, and Taylor T-Lock™ neck joint. Minimize

Spirocore strings are a further technical development of our Künstler Seil series and have a flexible spiral steel core. This core has greater elasticity than that of conventional strings, which means less inertia and a higher propensity to musical vibration. The sound is full and homogenous, balanced and voluminous. The string has been calibrated to satisfy the express wish of many artists for an equally effective arco and pizzicato. Particularly bassists with a low C extension will value this string's reliability. Spirocore is also much favored by jazz bassists because of its suitability for amplified pickup tone. Thomastik-Infeld has tackled notorious 'cello problems such as wolf notes and muting difficulties with Spirocore C and G strings in wound tungsten and silver wound. Spirocore's hi-tech core makes for effortless fingering, responsive bowing, stable tuning and a very long string life. With Spirocore the steel string's technical possibilities have been developed to their maximum. Minimize

Parabola: duets for 12-string extended baritone guitars; fe ... Read more

Parabola: duets for 12-string extended baritone guitars; featuring 6-string bass-baritone and 12-string alto guitar. Sandor Szabo (Hungary), and Kevin Kastning (USA), are modern guitar explorers. Both have invented guitar-family instruments which never previously existed; for example, Kevin invented the 12-string Extended Baritone guitar, which can be heard in the performances on Parallel Crossings. New England's Yankee Magazine called Kevin, ... a pioneer in modern acoustic guitar composition. Szabo & Kastning's 2007 Greydisc release, Resonance, placed in The Perfect Sound magazine's Top 10 Albums of 2007. Sandor Szabo is an internationally known and respected acoustic multi-guitar virtuoso. On Parabola,Sandor performs on a 12-string baritone guitar of Kevin's invention; yet employs his own unorthodox tunings. Kevin utilitzes intervallic tunings on many of the compositions of Parabola. The album was recorded in its entirety in a single day in a recording studio located in the peaceful New England countryside. The sound quality is of audiophile-grade; no compression, EQ, or limiting was utilized in the recording process, and the CD adheres to the rigid high audio standards set by Greydisc Records. Here are quotes from just a few of the many worldwide magazine reviews of the duo's 2007 album Resonance. The abstract expressionist painting on the cover of Resonance is fitting. This collection of haunting baritone guitar duets is a thrilling reminder that music is art as well as entertainment. Kastning, a Massachusetts native, is a pioneer in modern acoustic guitar composition, a world seldom visited by mainstream listeners. In his latest offering Kastning teams up with Hungarian virtuoso Sándor Szabó to produce thirteen puzzling pieces that may be best described as acoustic soundscapes. But the staccato back-and-forth of Resonance can be disturbingly peaceful and inspiring for those with enough time to develop an intimate relationship with it. Listen to this disc alone while you're writing, painting, cooking, or whatever it is you consider your art, and see where it takes you. - Yankee Magazine (USA) Acoustic Guitar magazine, February 2008 Resonance: Editor's Choice: Acoustic Guitar magazine, February 2008 (USA) On the basis of this disc, I feel confident saying that Sándor Szabó and Kevin Kastning are both remarkable guitar players and remarkable musicians. Their disc of baritone guitar duos feels like a summit meeting of players in complete sympathy with each other, operating on the same wavelength. (...) they are meticulously planned and executed pieces, mostly tonal and contrapuntal, with some excursions to the edge of pantonality. The pieces are well-constructed, with a casual, lived-in feeling. The recording is excellent. The sound of the guitars is clean and warm, with clear attacks and no distortion. - Sequenza21 magazine, (USA) Kevin Kastning & Sandor Szabo are both acoustic guitar players who excel in creating experimental guitar music which consists of creating musical sound escapades with deep layers. As well Kevin Kastning as Sandor Szabo received critical acclaim in the press and by the audience for their earlier released CD's. (...) There is a constant flow of emotions going on of the unconscious mind, painted in a creative and experimental setup. The opening track of Resonance, Another Face of the Beauty excels in great dynamics and at times it has a feeling of a classical and complicated composed piece of art. The music of Sandor Szabo & Kevin Kastning is very demanding for a listener, one has to be open for new experiences on processes going on in the human soul and Mother Nature's elements who try to connect with each other. Enjoy the journey! Minimize
