Here's The Run Down:
This is A
Very Cool & Great Playing Gibson RB-250 Banjo!
This vintage
USA
made banjo is in very good played condition overall, but will need binding work on the resonator as pictured, which shouldn't be too difficult to fix since its just a circle
(see pics)
. There will be playwear, marks, scuffs, chips, scratches and checking here or there, but nothing other than you would expect of a used, played and vintage instrument
(see pics)
. I tried to take really good pics, so you can judge for yourself
(see pics)
. There are
NO
breaks, repairs or damage that is not visible in the pics. This banjo appears to be all original with the possible exception of the truss rod cover and possibly the head & bridge. The back of the neck and headstock are in good shape with average wear as you would expect of a used vintage instrument
(pictured)
. There frets and fingerboard are actually in very good shape, not needing any attention other than a good cleaning. There is expected discoloration of the hardware.
If your looking for a Vintage Gibson 5 String Banjo at the right price, this is the one you have been waiting for!
This
Vintage Gibson Banjo
is very playable with very good action. Although I think its set up great, everyone has their own preferences. If your not happy with its set up, it will be your responsibility and cost to have it set up to your liking. The neck is straight, and the action is very good from one end of the board to the other. Will need to be cleaned and new strings.
The included
Vintage Case
is in good shape. All latches, hinges and handle operate as they should without issue. It will have marks and/or scuffs here or there from moving it around and age, but still a nice vintage case that's a proper fit.
Everything
operates as it should, and has never had, nor does it have any breaks or repairs unless noted above.
