For Sale: 1930's Gibson RB-11 w Ceres Tone Ring w/Video
This original 5-string Gibson RB-11 is from the 1930's and ready to go. The blue paint obviously doesn't endure time like nitro-lacquer and shows wear especially on the neck which is not uncommon. At some point the rim has been cut for a flathead tone ring and has now been fitted with the Ceres 20-hole tone ring. The metal on this banjo is 95% Gibson re-issue and in excellent condition. Modern tuners are also installed with 5th string spikes at 7, 9, and 10. If you need additional pictures or have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for looking.
