1926/27 Gibson PB-4 with 5 string neck

From banjodawg on 1/10/2012 6:01:07 PM

I stopped by Appalachian Bluegrass in Catonsville last Friday since I was in the area.  (I like to stop in and play whatever they have hanging on the wall.) Emory has a '26/'27 (I can't recall which) Gibson PB-4 with what appears to be a very old 5 string neck on consignment.  $3,200.  Nice banjo.

Just thought folks who are near by might like to know.

I haven't been out to Appalachian Bluegrass yet, i thought they only sold Goldtone and Deering, is their used section pretty good to play with?

The used selection at Appalachian Bluegrass varies. Sometimes they have some interesting old Gibsons. It's fun to just drop by once in a while, say "Hi" to Emory and his wife and play whatever is there.
