The Gold Tone OB-3RF is specially set up by banjo luthier, ED Weber at our shop in Tennessee. You cannot find a better banjo set-up person from any competitor out there than Ed Weber. Ed worked for Gibson banjos in Nashville for 25 years building their high end banjos. He is also an experienced custom banjo builder. Meet Ed Weber - Pro Set Up Technician for BanjoTeacher.com
Ed worked for Gibson Banjos for 25 years starting in the late 80's and helped design and build Gibson Banjos during that time. I feel very blessed to have him, not only as a highly skilled pro but as a friend and co-worker. Ed takes great pride in everything he does and it really shows in the tremendous feed back and satisfaction I receive back from my banjo customers. You can count on Ed to give you the very best banjo set up when ordering this banjo from Banjoteacher.com
The OB-3RF by Gold Tone comes with lifetime warranty which is TRANSFERRABLE if you sell the banjo later too.
