Gold Tone OB -150 - Mastertone - Pro Banjo
Zero Glide Nut Upgrade and 5th string Capo Spikes INSTALLED FREE with the Gold Tone OB-150.
The Gold Tone OB-150 Orange Blossom is a new model which offers "Pre-war" style at a price anyone can afford. It’s an amazing banjo with authentic tone and at this price I feel it is the best value in bluegrass banjos. Features include a three-ply maple rim and one-piece flange (just like the 1930's originals), a maple neck inlayed in authentic style, a brass flathead tone ring and a smooth satin wood grain finish.
The OB-150 features the same flathead tone ring used in the more expensive Gold Tone OB-250
The OB-150 by Gold Tone is professionally set up before shipping and comes with lifetime warranty which is TRANSFERRABLE if you sell the banjo later too.
The OB 150 comes in LEFTY too!
OB 150 is also available as a left-handed model.

OB 150 Demo Video PlayList - Ross Nickerson
I visited Gold Tone and had a chance to play the OB 150 over a 3 day span. I think it sounds great. I played a gig with Wayne and Robin Rogers and some of their employees and used this banjo and it performed beautifully. I had no reservations playing it in a professional situation where a pro banjo was needed. It was really comfortable and easy to play too. I had a hard time giving it back.

I appreciate all of your time and help
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulRoss,
I just wanted to tell you one more time how happy I am with my new banjo. The more I play it the better I like it. The tone and sustain are fantastic they are perfect for my taste. I appreciate all of your time and help. If and when I am ready to purchase another it will be from you. Thank you, Nathan

0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulHello, I bought an excellent Gold Tone OB 150. In your discussion, I read that the sound of the banja will improve the snuffy smith 5/8 bridge. I'm from the Czech Republic and nobody sells it here. Can you please send me the address where I would buy this bridge?
Thanks for your reaction.
Gold Tone OB-150 WOW Just WOW
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulI got my OB-150 yesterday and the set up was done nothing to do except tune and play. It has so much power up the neck and clear low growl, the tone on this is so much more than I expected for the money. I Just could not put it down I played it for a solid 6 hours yesterday! The only thing i didn't like about it was the strings they was a little too heavy for my liking but thats just me. I did change the strings to GHS J.D. Crowe 9.5s and the bridge to a snuffy smith 5/8 Crowe spaced bridge and adjusted the truss rod and it pushed the banjo over the edge in sound and tone. I am absouletly impressed and in shock of how this banjo sounds and plays. The quality of the fit and finish of the parts and the wood are excellent. Tuners are good nice and smooth. The frets are all level and nicely dressed, inlays are done really well there is some glue on the fretboard at the mastertone inlay. The tailpiece is awesome, at first I was a little put off by its look but its a great addition, it puts really solid and good pressure on the bridge and helps with the tone. All in all and fantastic banjo for the money even double the money.
My 2nd OB150 and this time from banjoteacher.com
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulYou are at the right place to get an amazing deal on a great banjo. If you want a pre war style banjo on a tight budget and want an excellent deal and a banjo setup and ready to play, this is what you need. The OB150 is not only affordable, it plays well. At banjoteacher.com you can purchase all the proper banjo accessories to be ready to hit a bluegrass jam. Your banjo will be delivered to your home, set up and ready to play.
I've played the OB150 at a few jam sessions and a few gigs and had many compliments on the look and sound of this banjo.
The Gold Tone OB150 offered me an opportunity to get everything I wanted in a banjo with everything I needed to be gig and jam session ready. Ross Nickerson even helped me get a set up for my banjo to my specs. He is a great banjo player and knows banjos. This is a very big reason to purchase from him. Lots of music stores are not bluegrasser oriented so they may not know just what you need. Ross does. Plus he can help you get to be a bluegrass banjo player with all the great lessons and instruction material. At banjoteacher.com you are truly getting the ultimate banjo experience where someone on a very tight budget can get into banjo and have lots of fun that will last a very long time
If you want a great banjo that plays great and sounds amazing and looks and feels great, then this is your banjo. I wouldn't be writing this review if I did not have a fun time with my purchase. If I took the time to write it was because I had a great time. I love my OB150. Ray Lawrence
Very Impressed
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulHi Ross,
Imagine my surprise when I came home this afternoon and found a box on my front porch containing a brand new banjo! The beginner package was also in the box. I am very impressed with the OB-150. It sounds great and looks great. Now, to start practicing rolls…… Take Care, Paul
