Gold Tone
Gold Tone OB-250 Bluegrass 5 string Banjo with case
The Gold Tone OB-250 is a professional-grade resonator banjo aimed at serious bluegrass players. Its bell brass flathead tone ring, 3-ply Canadian maple rim, die cast one-piece flange, and 14" flamed maple resonator give it the power, depth, and projection needed for demanding live and ensemble use. For players wanting a more traditional spec set and stronger low-end response, this sits above entry and mid-tier models in the range.
