Gold Tone has made affordable banjos for many years, and the Gold Tone MM-150 Mountain Maple was their first open back model. It features maple construction, a Whyte Laydie tone ring, and a Remo Renaissance head. And, the fingerboard is scooped for frailing style playing!

Here’s Gold Tone on the MM-150 Mountain Maple Openback Banjo:

“The Maple Mountain 150 exemplifies Gold Tone’s mission: to give you the best instrument for your money. The MM-150 was our first openback banjo and it still offers features found on many higher-priced banjos for less than you’d expect to pay.

The Gold Tone MM-150 half-inch-thick maple rim carries an authentically-designed Whyte Laydie -style scalloped three-piece brass tone ring under an eleven-inch Remo Renaissance head. Premium parts include a comfortable maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with snowflake inlays and a frailing scoop, vintage Fairbanks-style headstock design, planetary tuners, Vega-style armrest, and No Knot tailpiece. The MM-150 is completely set up at the Gold Tone Factory.”

The Gold Tone MM-150 Maple Mountain Openback banjo is sold with a Gold Tone gig bag.
