2006 Gibson RB3 5 string Banjo

This is a 2006 Gibson RB3 with a new neck.  This is definitely a great opportunity for someone looking for a Gibson at a low price.  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

This is an all original Gibson RB3 minus a new neck and new clamshell tailpiece.  This is definitely a quality banjo but I would probably recommend putting a different neck on.  The neck is a good neck but its not the best and this could be improved with a better quality neck.

This has a 3 ply hard rock maple shell.  The neck and resonator are mahogany.  This has nickel hardware which is all original other than the tailpiece.  This has a Gibson USA flange and also a Gibson USA Kulesh tone ring.  This has the good parts!  The armrest is a one piece armrest and this has the original tension hoop as well.

The fretboard is rosewood with a Wreath inlay which looks really good.  There is white binding on each side of the neck and resonator.  The headstock also has Wreath inlay with the Gibson logo.  The tuners may also be original and probably are.  Gibson definitely used these tuners for a long time.

This banjo is absolutely a great banjo even with this neck.  I want to be clear that the neck is absolutely not a bad neck, I would just recommend getting a better one built.  Gibson banjos have really skyrocketed in value and this is definitely a smoking good deal on a Gibson.  This also includes a hardshell case which was made by the same company that made the Gibson cases.  The case is not a Gibson case but it is similar.

Condition

This is in excellent shape.  The pot looks great!  The hardware is all clean and the resonator looks really clean also.  The neck and fretboard are also in really good shape.  This doesn’t look like its been played much at all.

This has been refretted at least once and the fretboard shows a lot of marks by the frets from removing the frets.  I would say also the fret job was not the best fret job.  The frets themselves are in really good shape.  There are spikes at the 7th-10th frets.  The case is also clean.  This is definitely in good shape.

Set Up

This has been professionally set up at the Banjo Warehouse.  This has an American Banjo Company frosted head which is clean and has been set to 90 on a drum dial.  The bridge is a Snuffy Smith bridge and has been set with correct intonation.  This has new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings and the action is set nicely.  This also is fully adjustable.  This banjo does sound good and is a great player.

This could be your chance to get a Gibson Banjo for under $3000 which has gotten really hard to do recently.  Check out Banjo Warehouse for all sorts of interesting New, Used and Vintage Banjos for Sale!
