Gibson RB-250. Circa late 1960s.
This type of Gibson, with bowtie inlay and fiddle cut peghead,
was only made for a couple of years in the late 1960s. This is
an exceptionally clean example. Mahogany, with three piece neck.
There are two small holes in the side of the neck, where a sliding
capo was removed. Two capo spikes are installed, and there is
a tiny hole in the fingerboard where a third spike was removed.
It still has the box tuners and friction fifth string peg. Chrome
plated metal parts and a flathead tone ring. It has a thin rim,
as made, but it is a very good sounding banjo. |
