Gibson Banjos
We stock a wide range of Gibson banjos, including pre-war, vintage, and relatively recent styles through the very last of the Gibson banjos produced in 2010.
As the quality standard, Gibson banjos were played by nearly all the top players, including Earl Scruggs, J D Crowe, Ralph Stanley, Sonny Osborne, Bill Emerson, and many others. More recent top banjoists who play Gibson banjos include Bela Fleck, Noan Pikelney, Jim Mills, Bill Evans, and Kristin Scott Benson.
Give us a call if you have any questions. We love to talk about banjos. Keep in mind that we nearly always have several Gibson banjos in stock that haven’t yet made it to our website listings.
This 1977 Stelling Staghorn Five-String Resonator Banjo is in excellent condition. It was very seldom played, if at all. This banjo has a binding of abalone shell pearl along the inlay, neck, heel, and on both sides of the resonator.
Tim Davis is an established and well-respected maker of professional banjos. Davis has become known fro producing several high-quality Butch Robbins and Don Reno reissue banjos. This 2015 Davis Concord is an early prototype model with a highly-figured curly maple neck and resonator.
This Huber VRB 3 Banjo was manufactured in 2016 at their factory in Nashville and has the same features if you bought a new one today from Steve: an engineered rim, a Huber HR-30 tone ring, and a mahogany neck and resonator.
This longneck openback RB-175 Gibson banjo is from the late 1960s or early 1970s. It has three extra frets which allow banjoists and singers to play in open E.
