Overview

Openback excellence for classic tone and vibe in a design just for left-handed players.

Gold Tone’s most popular open back banjo, the White Ladye WL-250 provides a plunky, yet punchy, tone well-suited for old time and folk music. This left-handed WL-250 model features an accurate replica of the vintage and highly sought-after 3-part White Ladye tone ring coupled with a 1/2" rim for maximum air chamber volume. Other features include a maple neck and bound ebony fingerboard with cloud inlays and frailing scoop, double adjusting truss rod, vintage heel design, Fairbanks-style headstock shape, GT Master planetary tuners, 11" Renaissance head, no-knot tailpiece and dual coordinator rods for a solid neck fit and easy adjustment capabilities. Final assembly and a complete setup of the WL-250 White Ladye left-handed banjo is done at the Gold Tone Factory in Florida.
