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.
Condition (see photos): Virtually no fret ware. Resonator has some wood checking that is apparent when you shine it under bright light. This RB-250 comes with a high-quality case that somebody wrote "The Gibson" on. However, it is not an original Gibson case.
This rare, custom one-piece flange Blonde Gibson RB-800 is from the early 1970s. It is all-original and in excellent condition and the gold on this banjo is in good shape.
