Crackerjack player and banjo luthier Sean Barry says those bowties are as good quality banjos as Gibson ever made.

Not a crackerjack player on any level…but have a very early Bow tie and have/had a few pre-WWII Gibsons over the decades. And yes, they definitely stack up solid against the prewar instruments. No question.

Now who has -19?
