Gold Tone MM-150 Maple Mountain Openback Banjo w/Case
The Gold Tone MM-150 is an open-back banjo aimed at players wanting a more traditional old-time specification without stepping into much higher price brackets. Its 3-ply maple rim, Whyte Laydie tone ring, rosewood fingerboard with scoop, and 11" Remo HC Renaissance head make it a strong option for players after clarity, snap, and a more vintage-leaning response.
