Gold Tone Banjola+ Woodbody Banjo

Gold Tone Banjola+: Woodbody Banjo with Pickup and Bag

The Gold Tone Banjola+ is an inspired fusion of banjo clarity and mandola warmth — a distinctive instrument handcrafted for musicians seeking tonal depth and versatility. Its solid spruce top and curly maple body deliver a beautiful blend of brightness and warmth, producing a rich, resonant sound with crisp articulation. Each instrument is hand-finished in natural high-gloss and bound with white ABS, reflecting Gold Tone’s commitment to craftsmanship and visual elegance.

Sonically, the Banjola+ shines with expressive overtones and balanced projection. Its lightweight build enhances comfort, while the bridge-mounted transducer pickup ensures easy amplification without compromising acoustic integrity. Whether fingerpicked, flatpicked, or played clawhammer style, it maintains clarity and sustain across every note. Over time, its tone matures — the spruce top opening up to produce greater warmth and dynamic response with continued playing.

Perfect for creative banjoists and crossover musicians, the Banjola+ offers a fresh voice for ballads, instrumentals, and multi-genre performances. It’s ideal for players who want the familiarity of a 5-string banjo with the expressive tonal character of a wooden-bodied instrument. Whether on stage or in the studio, the Banjola+ delivers a unique, soulful sound that stands apart from the crowd.
