Original Neck, Raised Head Ring, and Case Included!
Posted By: texasbanjos (+408) | Rate Member
Just got in this old banjo in on consignment and it's a killer! I'd sure love to be able to keep this one for myself. :^)
1929 Gibson TB-3 Conversion - FON: 9488-60
This is pretty much a complete package deal. Included are the original TB case, TB neck, 40-hole raised head tone ring and one-piece flange (broken/chipped, but repairable).
The banjo has a new replacement flange from Saga. (The rim is unaltered.) The flathead conversion tone ring is a Blaylock, and the conversion neck was fabricated by Mr. Jim Yarboro (ret.) from Gun Barrel City, Texas. The Presto tailpiece has been punched for the third string.
This banjo has the look, tone and that great pre-war vibe that most bluegrass players are looking for. Get this one while you can!
I'm glad to answer any questions or provide more pics/details upon request.
Thanks for looking, and happy picking!
