I have up for sale a vintage Gibson Mastertone RB-250 5 string banjo in very good condition. It is a 1985 model. It was setup by Charlie Cushman last November and sounds fantastic. It was appraised by him as well and the original appraisal will be included with the banjo. I had it setup for a great bluegrass sound. Mr. Cushman informed me that the black multiply rim had been replace with a very high quality 3ply maple rim which would be an upgrade considering what Gibson was using during that period. Everything else appears to be original with the exception of the D-tuners which are included with the banjo and a shubb sliding 5th string capo. The frets are also in very good shape. This banjo is sure to please any picker wanting to upgrade to a professional quality instrument and with Gibson not looking to produce banjos in the near future its sure to be a collectors piece. Please feel free to message me with any questions. I only ship to 48 contiguous states. Thanks for looking. This banjo is also for sale on ebay but I had rather sell through the hangout.
