This is a brand new Gold Tone OB250+ Banjo and includes a Free deluxe case with Free Shipping. A classic reproduction of the most famous flathead bluegrass banjo with astonishing tone and playability. The Gold Tone Orange Blossoms have been Gold Tones flagship banjos for 10 years and is played world wide by many pros (E.P. Bill Keith, Frank Wakefeild) and many recording artists, myself (Bird Youmans) included!
New improved features for this year! The OB-250+ has been redesigned and now includes an Ebony fingerboard, Maple neck (instead of softer mahogany), Maple binding, GT Master Planetary Tuners, 1st fret inlay, One piece curly maple veneer on a maple resonator, and a new gorgeous finish.
Gold Tone has taken their celebrated OB-250+ and improved it dramatically by adding many unique features reserved for only the highest-quality banjos. Upgraded features include the JLS tone ring, 3-ply Canadian maple rim, curly maple neck, Gary Sosebee Cotton Mill bridge, and a Free deluxe case.
The JLS Tone Ring is a replica of the Gibson tone ring used in the Granada models in the 30’s. The maker, from Texas, has analyzed an original tone ring and duplicated the exact specifications. When electronically tested for pitch, sustain, and ring, it equals the original. It also has a slightly longer “skirt” which (1) provides more contact with wood rim and (2) provides direct contact with the heel of the neck. The neck is attached with a conventional hanger bolt going through a hole at the edge of the tone ring. This method provides an extremely tight fit and maximum heel contact with tone ring.
Folks, this is one outstanding value in a banjo!! At a list of $2729 it would be a steal, but our price is $2049! Get ready to "Saw 'em off at the knees" with this beauty! You will not find any bluer grass than this any where near this price!! I play an OB250G+ and I love it.
While some sell Gold Tones that are seconds or blems for less money, ours are brand new and 1st quality! This is quality sound at a great price making this OB-250+ truly the "Orange Blossom Special!!" This banjo includes Gold Tones lifetime warranty.
