You may want to ask Jim Palenscar - he was very helpful when I recently started asking about Weissenborn style guitars, including Gold Tone.

Gold Tone instruments are well-made throughout their product line. I've played a GT 8-string and it's a good value for the money, around 500-600 bucks depending on the store. It's kind of an Oahu Tonemaster knock-off.

I'd agree with Herb. They're great instruments for the money, one of the lowest priced decent eight string guitars out there.
