Overview

Better quality banjo for lefties.

The BG-250F is Gold Tone's value-priced, fully professional-spec Bluegrass banjo; its equipment list reads like pre-war collector banjo, but its price is within reach of any player searching for a keeper banjo.

Featuring Gold Tone's bell-brass tone ring and die-cast brass one-piece flange, the BG-250F has a bound rosewood fretboard (with tasteful snowflake inlays) a maple neck with GT Master planetary tuning machines and a hard-rock maple rim for brighter tone. The straight-line tailpiece provides equal down-pressure for all strings for more balanced playing response. This is the left-handed version.


Vintage styling, great sound.
