1970’s Gibson RB250 5 string Banjo

This is a gorgeous 1970’s Gibson RB250 that is all original.  This has been inspected and set up at the Banjo Warehouse in Atlanta Georgia.

ALL OF OUR SALES INCLUDE A 7 DAY FULL SATISFACTION GUARANTEE

Description

The RB250 is one of the most well known and classic models for Gibson Banjo.  This was made in the 1970’s and is clean and all original.

This has a fat maple shell with a mahogany neck and resonator.  The hardware is nickel.  The neck has an ebony fretboard with a leaves and bows inlay pattern.  There is white binding on each side of the neck and resonator.  The tuners are original Gibson tuners and also are nickel plated.  This has an original 20 hole full size nickel plated tone ring and an original 2 piece flange.  This also has an original Gibson armrest and original Gibson clam shell tailpiece.

For $1699 this is hard to beat.  This has a wonderful sound to it and is a vintage design so it has some nice old banjo tone.  This is probably the best value on a used Gibson Banjo that can be found.  The banjo also includes a nice hardshell case.  I doubt this will last long at this price and if you want a Gibson Banjo but don’t want to spend $1000’s of dollars this banjo is for you!

Condition

This has been professionally cleaned at the Banjo Warehouse.  We have disassembled the banjo and buffed the metal and waxed all the wood.  This banjo now has a really nice glow.  Everything shines and the hardware basically looks new.  The resonator does have checking and some other signs of light wear like minor scratches but still looks really good.  The neck and fretboard are both clean as well.  There is some wear on the first few frets but it’s not serious and the rest of the frets look great.  The only fret with a spike is the 9th.  The case is also clean.

Set Up

This has been professionally set up at the Banjo Warehouse also.  This has a new Remo frosted head which is set to 90 on a drum dial.  The bridge has been set with correct intonation.  The strings are new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings and the action is set nicely.  Plus this is fully adjustable.  This is a classic design that has been professionally cleaned and set up to look, play and sound its best.  Check out Banjo Warehouse for all sorts of interesting new and used and vintage banjos for sale.
