Gold Tone OB-250+ Orange Blossom Banjo

Gold Tone OB-250+ Orange Blossom Banjo 

The Gold Tone OB-250+ Orange Blossom Banjo is a masterful blend of American craftsmanship and vintage-inspired design. Handcrafted in the USA with a premium JLS #12 long-skirt tone ring, cast by Jim Stull, this banjo honors the tonal qualities of pre-WWII instruments. Its bronze alloy tone ring maximizes energy transfer from the pot to the neck, delivering the authentic sound and character of rare, collectible banjos. Each detail, from the flamed maple resonator to the curly maple neck, reflects a dedication to both beauty and durability.

Tonally, the OB-250+ delivers enhanced sustain, resonance, and clarity, providing the rich, full-bodied Bluegrass sound that professionals demand. The Companion block-style rim on the OB-250+TP variant adds even greater projection and tonal depth. Gotoh planetary tuners and a maple bridge with Sampson BG ensure precise tuning and optimal string response, while the Hearts & Flowers inlay and high-gloss vintage brown finish make a striking visual statement.

Ideal for serious performers, educators, and dedicated students, the OB-250+ stands out in its class for both playability and professional-level tone. Its combination of American-made hardware, premium materials, and classic design makes it an instrument that inspires confidence on stage, in the studio, or during personal practice.
