Product Description

The Orange Blossom (OB) banjos harken back to Gold Tone's early days and their popularity hasn't diminished over the decades. These professional-grade banjos evoke the great pre-World War II banjos played by the likes of Earl Scruggs, Don Reno, and J.D. Crow. These masters and more all depended on those great banjos from the Midwest USA to power their sound. The OB-250 has everything needed to produce that tone: a sand-cast bell brass flathead tone ring, a cast one-piece resonator flange circling a multi-ply maple rim with twin coordinator rods and an extra-deep curly maple multi-ply resonator for better low-end response. The curly maple neck has a bound ebony fretboard with hearts & flowers inlay. The bracket hooks even have metric threading to enable finer tension adjustment. The price includes a hard shell case. Available as left-handed model.
