Description

The newest addition to Gold Tone's series of tributes to the great banjos made before the Second World War continues with this, the most beautiful edition they've offered yet. The Gold Tone OB-Grandee (the Old West moniker for a Spanish nobleman) pays homage to one of the Holy Grail banjos of yore, resplendent in its engraved and gold-plated glory. Gold Tone responded to your many requests by offering this latest in the series that began with the OB-3 Twanger, followed by the OB-Bela and the OB-2 Bowtie. This professional-grade banjo hits all of the right notes (pun intended): the curly maple neck and resonator, premium hardware, bridge and tuning machines unite to bring you that pre-war essence without the wallet-busting price. And the TONE...the TONE!
