Description

Based on a custom design by noted luthier Andy Perkins of Andybanjo.com, Faversham, UK, the IT-250F is THE banjo for the Irish tenor banjoist that wants to be heard! Gold Tone's loudest tenor banjo features a sand-cast bronze arch-top tone ring and a brass resonator flange. The fourteen-inch resonator pushes your music forward and out, assuring that you'll be heard even in the largest session. The slim, playable neck is bound in white celluloid and boasts beautiful, traditional hearts and flowers inlay. This is a banjo you'll be proud to play in any setting.
