Gold Tone BG-150F: Bluegrass Banjo with Flange and Gig Bag

Reviving a Mid-century Folk Classic The BG-150F bluegrass banjo summons the tone of decades past to arm folk musicians with coveted prewar aesthetics at a too-good-to-pass-up price point. Fit with proprietary Gold Tone features such as a Remo HC Coated topside head, flat flange, Terminator tailpiece, Zero Glide nut, and hearts and flowers fretboard inlays, there's a lot to say about BG-150F's unique look and pro-tier playability. The inclusion of maple woods keeps the instrument light, but with ample strength and navigability for any folk project. Likewise, a quarter-inch brass rod tone ring deviates from the standard 3-pound bell brass ring, ensuring a tight construction with much less weight on the shoulders. Take it from us: considering the steady din of banjo licks that radiates from Sweetwater's halls on a daily basis, it's safe to say that the BG-150F's authenticity is among the finest in our folk instrument arsenal.Crisp maple
