The BG-250F is the first professional 5 string banjo in our line.
It is a vintage replica of the most famous banjo ever played in bluegrass music. All its parts are accurate reproductions of the original. In addition, we have added a maple neck, which brightens tone compared to the original mahogany necks.
The BG-250F model has been discontinued. It was replaced by the Newer upgraded Gold Tone Wide Neck Model

....my banjo arrived today and looks and feels great. I'm a happy man.(shipping from america to my post office in vic, australia took only 6 days ) i like the weight- finish-action and tone .(would you believe the banjo was in tune ) it was my lucky day when i discovered you over the internet and i will have no hesitation in recommending your service. oh by the way im making full use of your members only site that was a great bonus. i know youve heard this praise many times before, but it is deserved.
Ross – the Gold Tone GB 250F arrived yesterday and it’s everything you said. What a great banjo. I just hope I can do it justice by learning to play it! Thanks again for calling me from Australia to answer a couple of neophyte questions. I didn’t expect you to call from the land down under! Great customer service! PS – Kathy was great as well, very personable and helpful.
.... Hi Ross, I received the banjo today!!! wonderful!!! ... All is Ok! ... I am playing it now and I mean to play until late tonight ;) ... Well I want express my thanks to you now, and communicate as well that I will not forget your name for my next purchasing, possibly next year, and sure I will make your name to friends who want to buy a banjo... Ross! I wish you all the best and again thanks alot.
I went to IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association) Trade show on Fri and played quite a few banjo's while I was there, I again walked away real happy with my BG250F . I'm glad that I trusted your judgment and bought it. I hang out with a lot of songwriters and musicians and everyone I've showed it to was impressed with the value and also the deluxe TKL case that came with it. The action is great and it plays like a dream.
I got the banjo today "12/4/2014" and what a banjo, pure heaven. I want to thank you for all you've done for me. You said what you would do and you did it. A person who keeps his word, how rare, hard to find.
The banjo sounds great. I will tell all my playing friends about you and your web-site.
Thanks again Ross.
