Gold Tone OB-3 'Twanger' 5 String Resonator Banjo with Hard Case
A Modern remake of the original Gibson RB3 model 'The Banger' played by JD Crowe with the no hole tonering. The OB-3 Twanger was born. After extensive research, and with great attention to every detail, Gold Tone was able to rebirth this classic banjo. What makes this banjo truly unique is its "No Hole" tone ring, which really tightens up the sustain. It also features the original measurements on the headstock, neck and body, nickel plated hardware, slanted resonator walls, vintage inlay, a Presto tailpiece, concentric resonator rings, and a brown mahogany finish. Supplied in a hard case.
