Best Irish Tenor 4 string banjo with an archtop tone ring and one piece flange.
The 4-string Gold Tone IT - 250F Irish Tenor is the best Irish Tenor Banjo with a one piece flange and resonator. The Gold Tone Irish Tenor Banjo is really something, especially for the price. You will think it should have cost two or three times as much when you hold and play it.
Our Irish Tenor banjos have always been a favorite in the Celtic arena. This new model was recommended by Andy Perkins and is based on a custom design that he has already been building for some years in response to a demand for a more "up front" banjo than the well-regarded IT250 model. Andy helped us design this model which packs extra punch/volume and will "cut through" at crowded Celtic music sessions. Combining the refined & well-tested Gold Tone shortscale tenor neck with a hard rock maple 3 ply rim, sand cast brass tone ring, one piece flange and 14" traditional resonator assures quality tone - and lots of it!!
