Gold Tone TS-250 Tenor Special Banjo

Gold Tone TS-250 Tenor Special Banjo – Musical Strings USA

The Gold Tone TS-250 Tenor Special Banjo is a meticulously crafted tribute to the iconic pre-World War II tenor banjos of the Midwestern United States. Constructed with a 14" mahogany resonator, 11" 3-ply maple rim, and an 11" bell brass flathead tone ring, this banjo captures the authentic vintage look and sound that made these instruments legendary. Its maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and classic Hearts & Flowers inlay adds both elegance and comfort for extended playing sessions.

Sonically, the TS-250 delivers crisp, clear highs and full-bodied lows, with strong projection suitable for jazz, Celtic, Dixieland, or traditional banjo styles. The bell brass tone ring and one-piece flange enhance sustain and resonance, while the professionally designed setup ensures smooth, responsive action right out of the case. Over time, the tonal qualities continue to develop, maintaining warmth and clarity for decades of performance.

Perfect for students, professional performers, and educators alike, this tenor banjo combines vintage aesthetics with modern reliability. Its standard CGDA tuning and 19 frets make it versatile for various genres, while the durable construction and player-focused ergonomics allow for long, fatigue-free sessions. The TS-250 stands out as a high-quality, performance-ready instrument in its class.
