The Gold Tone OB-3 "The Twanger" is a replica of JD Crowe's 1930's Gibson RB3 banjo he called "The Banger" which featured a no hole brass flathead tone ring, one piece flange, 3 ply maple rim, mahogany neck and slant wall resonator.
24 Fret Scale Advantages
What is amazing on this 24 fret scale is you can play two full octaves, which means you get a high D note on the first string.
Your normal 22 fret banjos can only reach a high C note. Also, the 24 fret scale gives you extra room on the frets which comes
into play especially when playing up the neck. The Gold Tone ML-1 has the 24 fret scale which I play often and it's an easy unnoticeable transition for me.
Tone Improvement with the OB-3EF 24 fret
The tone of the OB-3EF will be fuller. The reason for that is with the extra length the neck has more weight. Neck weight and banjo tone are an underestimated reason for better banjo tone. Most players want a thinner neck, but that can sacrifice tone. With the OB-3EF you have extra weight without changing any of the easier to play neck profile. Another tone characteristic of the 24 fret scale length is the 24 fret length puts slightly more tension on the strings which gives the banjo extra punch. Another advantage is the 24 fret scale can make it easier to user lighter gauge strings without them feeling sloppy.
The OB-3 by Gold Tone is professionally set up before shipping and comes with lifetime warranty which is TRANSFERABLE if you sell the banjo later too.
