For Sale: Gold Tone BG-250F Banjo with Hardshell Case - $850 USD
I am selling this new Gold Tone banjo from our store that we closed last year. We were a Gold Tone dealer for several years. After 40 successful years we sold our building and closed the doors. I thought that I would just continue selling online, but I took a job with the Post Office and have no time to keep up with my online stores right now. (as a side note, if you would be interested in some bulk items for your business, just let me know.)
This BG-250F is new and in new condition. It had been stored properly since we closed and has no wear except a couple of moving dings on the case.
I am not interested in trades.
Below are Gold Tone's specifications:
The BG-250F is the first professional 5 string banjo in our line. It is a vintage replica of the most famous banjo ever played in bluegrass music. All its parts are accurate reproductions of the original. In addition, we have added a maple neck to brighten the tone compared to the original mahogany necks and added a straightline tailpiece to provide extra downward pressure on the bridge creating even more volume. Features also include a bound rosewood fingerboard, a die cast one piece flange and 14” bound mahogany resonator, the new GT Master planetary tuners, a 3-ply Canadian maple rim, flat-top 20-hole bell brass tone ring, and a complete setup here at the Gold Tone Factory in Florida. For a no frills, straight ahead bluegrass banjo, the BG-250F cannot be beat for quality and tone.
