1931 Gibson RB3 Banjo
(Serial No. 116-5) This is it! This is the Holy Grail of bluegrass banjos. This is an original 1931 Gibson RB3 5 string banjo. Excellent condition. All hardware is original, including the neck, the original flathead tone ring, the one piece flange, tuners, armrest, tailpiece, and resonator. The neck heel was repaired and a new exact copy fretboard was made by Gary and fitted to correct intonation. Just set up by Nathan Beaumont. It comes in a new Price case, which is a world class fiberglass case designed and manufactured by Gary. Click here for a video clip of this banjo played by Nathan Beaumont of the Remedy Tree Band.
