The Gold Tone OB-150 is the most affordable professional-grade bluegrass banjo we carry. This is where Mastertone-level construction begins in the Gold Tone lineup, a 20-hole flat top bell brass tone ring, 3-ply Canadian maple rim, and one-piece cast flange. The same construction approach used in the instruments that defined bluegrass, at a price working musicians can actually afford. Hardshell case included.

Every OB-150 we sell is inspected and set up by our banjo tech Tara at Banjo Warehouse in Yellow Springs, Ohio before it ships. Tara trained at the Huber Banjo factory under Steve Huber and Bennie Boling. Gold Tone also sets up every OB-150 at their factory in Titusville, Florida. Two professional setups before it reaches you.
