1999 Gibson RB-6 Custom-Order Banjo – Gold Sparkle Finish, Bella Voce Engraving
Offered for sale is an exceptionally rare near mint 1999 Gibson RB-6 custom-order 5-string banjo. Inspired by Gibson’s legendary prewar Style 6 Mastertone banjos, this instrument features highly flamed maple and the striking gold sparkle pearloid appointments that made the original RB-6 one of Gibson’s most visually distinctive and collectible models.
What sets this banjo apart is its elaborate custom Bella Voce-style engraving, a highly unusual feature not found on standard production RB-6 instruments. The gold-plated hardware is extensively engraved, creating a unique combination of two of Gibson’s most celebrated prewar banjo designs.
Serial number: 6-9911-7.
Included is the original Gibson warranty card dated 1999, confirming its Gibson origin and supporting its status as a special-order instrument.
This banjo represents a rare opportunity to acquire a custom-built Gibson RB-6 with appointments beyond those found on standard catalog models. An outstanding instrument for the collector, player, or Gibson enthusiast seeking something truly uncommon.
