Description
In late 2018, “Banjo Ben” Clark, Jake Stogdill, and Robby Boone had a concept for replicating one of the most iconic banjos, played by the one of the most iconic banjo players of all time, JD Crowe’s original RB-3 (“Banger”). 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. Gold Tone has designed hundreds of banjos in the last 25 years, but tone-wise, this outperforms every previous model. Includes an archtop hardshell case and lifetime transferrable warranty.
The OB3 is absolutely a special banjo that does deliver the Pre War Tone it claims it does. This banjo is loud and full with a lot of clarity in in the notes. This is probably the best Bluegrass Style Banjo under $2000 today.

The Fender Leo was made in Japan when the Japanese perhaps made superior banjos to those made in the United States. This Leo was built to Gibson specifications and features a full-size tone ring and a 10-ply shell. It also has pot metal parts and high-quality keys. This particular Fender Leo belonged to an avid collector who had many banjos, so it was rarely played. It includes the original hardshell case.
