Huber Banjos is proud to announce that the new owner of our "Wade Mainer Tribute" VRB-G banjo is none other than........ Isaac Mainer, great-nephew of Wade Mainer himself !



Isaac plays with the band "Blue Edition" out of Johnson City, Tennessee. He visited with us in the Huber shop on Friday and took delivery of his new banjo.



Proceeds from the sale of this banjo will go to benefit the Bluegrass Heritage Foundation and the "Play It Forward" program.



Congratulations to Isaac Mainer!



Isaac Mainer and the Huber "Wade Mainer Tribute" VRB-G banjo.

What's the opposite of irony? You couldn' t write a story as good as this!

I think it's very fitting (agree, not really ironic). Thanks Steve Huber for honoring Wade Mainer, for Paying it Forward, and to Isaac Mainer for carrying on the tradition!
