This is the exact banjo you'll receive. This banjo is brand new, but has been on display on our sales floor. May have a few light examples of shop wear such as light marks, scratches, etc. May not ship in original shipping box. This instrument still carries the full manufacturers warranty, and will be thoroughly inspected before shipping.
New for 2016, the Gold Tone BG-150F brings the beautiful appearance of the great pre-WWII banjos to a new, lower price point. This banjo offers the player the lovely hearts-and-flowers fretboard inlay and the fully-bound neck and fourteen-inch resonator of the Gold Tone BG-250F combined with lightweight playing comfort (made possible by installing a quarter-inch brass-rod tone ring rather than the nearly three-pound bell brass ring in the BG-250F). Little is lost in sound quality or power, and long gigs played standing up become much more bearable. Comes with a gig bag! Available as left-handed model.
