Gibson (used, 1925) RB-3 Flathead five-string conversion
#8204-3, from TB-3 Ball Bearing Mastertone tenor, in very good condition with newer black imported hard shell case.
The way it is presently set-up this banjo has a newer maple resonator – however it comes with the original worn resonator as well. The back of the resonator that’s on the five-string conversion is highly figured maple, which is not the standard wood on a TB-3. Since the person who made the replacement neck made it in flame maple he probably figured “what the heck, let’s replace the resonator.”

Gibson (used, 1994) RB-4
#9442-22, urled walnut resonator, straight-grained walnut neck, in a Gibson USA flattop hard shell case, some of whose white stitching is torn.
This banjo conforms to the standard description of a previously owned, recently made, Gibson RB-4, having the “flying eagle” mother of pearl fingerboard inlay pattern and the double-cut headstock design inlaid in mother of pearl that has turned a golden hue with the “Gibson” script logo and a series of 9 pearl decorations whose designs can only be referred to as “squids and things.”

Gibson (used, 1994) Mastertone Granada five-string
#9486-23, excellent minus condition, with original hard shell case.
This is, in keeping with the standard description of this Nashville-made model, a recreation of the prewar version – except that most prewar examples were archtop or ball bearing tone ring-equipped and this is a flathead. If this were an actual prewar flathead five-string Granada it would probably sell for $200,000. Yow. But luckily this is a replica, housed in a Gibson logo black flattop hard shell case missing the tab on the pocket.
Our Discount Price is $4,118.00 and Our Cash Discount Price is $3,995.00.

Chris Pandolfi of The Infamous Stringdusters is one of the bright lights in modern, 3 finger banjo, and his signature model Huber banjo reflects his unique style.

Gibson (used, 1967) RB-250 “Bowtie”
#010748, inlay Mastertone flathead 5-string resonator banjo, in very good condition, hard shell case to be provided.
This one-piece flange banjo bears serial number #010748 stamped into on the back of its headstock, with an impressed serial number on the inside of the pot that reads 7080-104. There is a possibility that this banjo may be comprised of an earlier (maybe even late 1950s) pot with a 1967 neck. The tone ring is 20-hole flathead; we cannot say with certainty that this was the original tone ring from the pot; we tend to think it is not.

Huber Banjos (new) Roanoke 5-String
#110887, with hard shell plush-lined case.
Our brand new Huber Roanoke combines a
slightly more ornate peghead overlay with the rich color of walnut and the
simplicity of a nickel plated banjo. The striking, highly-figured burl walnut
resonator with its contrasting inlaid wood rings makes for an instrument that
is as much a treat for the eyes as it is the ears, the nose and the lungs. Both the straight grain walnut neck and the
resonator are stained a natural walnut finish, and the neck, which is
inlaid with the original Huber pattern, is bound in white/black/white purfling which adds a delightful visual touch.
