Gold Tone IT-19 Irish Tenor Banjo

Gold Tone IT-19: Irish Tenor Banjo with 19 Frets and Gig Bag

The Gold Tone IT-19 Irish Tenor Banjo blends traditional Celtic character with modern playability and precision craftsmanship. Built with a 12" multi-ply maple rim, rolled brass tone ring, and vintage brown satin finish, this instrument captures the rich heritage of Irish tenor banjos while delivering enhanced volume, projection, and sustain. Designed in the USA and expertly assembled with top-grade materials, it’s the ideal balance between authentic tone and reliable performance.

With its 12-inch rim and resonant tone ring, the IT-19 produces a full-bodied sound with strong low-end warmth and crystal-clear highs. The maple neck and rosewood fingerboard provide smooth playability and articulate response, while the clover inlay and curly maple armrest reflect Gold Tone’s dedication to both aesthetics and comfort. This banjo’s tonal range makes it equally suited for traditional Irish sessions, folk ensembles, or solo acoustic performance.

Ideal for advancing players, folk musicians, and professional performers seeking a true Celtic-inspired banjo, the Gold Tone IT-19 stands out for its clarity, craftsmanship, and setup precision. Its 19-fret neck offers extended range for melodic phrasing and more versatility in tuning options, making it a top choice in its class for tone and reliability.
