Gold Tone WL-250LN 5-String Open Back Long Neck Banjo incl hard case

The White Laydie 250 Long Neck produces the plunky yet focused tone that's long been a standard for Old Time and folk music. This banjo features an accurate replica of the classic three-piece Whyte Laydie tone ring, mated with a half-inch maple rim for maximum air chamber volume. The extra-long maple neck has a vintage heel design, a Fairbanks-style headstock shape and GT Master planetary tuners. Stylized cloud inlays adorn the bound ebony fretboard which terminates in a frailing scoop. The eleven-inch pot carries a Remo Renaissance head, a No-Knot tailpiece and dual coordinator rods for a solid neck fit and easy adjustments. A complete pro setup at the Gold Tone Factory in Florida helps to make the standard WL-250 Gold Tone's most popular openback banjo ever.
