This is the Goldtone IT-250 short scale 17 fret tenor banjo. A perfect choice for a fiddle player moving onto banjo. This model features the famous Whyte Laydie tone ring which adds carrying power to the tone, allowing the player to use a lighter touch for greater precision with the pick.

The IT-250R’s voice is efficiently directed toward the listener by the included resonator back. The neck and half-inch thick rim are made from solid maple which generates the great tone this banjo have. High-quality hardware ensures years of durability and ease of adjustment and maintenance. Any mandolinist will find it easy to switch off to the IT-250 and add an extra dimension of authenticity to their music. Comes with a good quality Grafton hardshell case with grey fur lining.
