Gold Tone OB-175 Mahogany Banjo with Flying Eagle Inlay with Bag or $79 Hard Case Discount
Gold Tone OB-175 Bluegrass Banjo With Bag - Flying Eagle Mastertone
Classic Mastertone punch. Featherweight feel.
The Gold Tone OB-175 pays homage to the iconic RB-100, delivering that legendary Mastertone-style drive and crispness without the back-breaking weight. Built around a premium 3-ply maple rim and a specially routed, rolled brass tone ring, this banjo serves up a focused, traditional tone in a remarkably shoulder-friendly design.
Whether you’re looking to save your back during long festival sets, upgrade to a professional-grade workhorse, or add a vintage-inspired powerhouse to your collection, the OB-175 offers world-class craftsmanship at a weight you’ll appreciate.
