1963 Gibson RB-250 Mastertone Banjo
Up for sale is a vintage 1963 Gibson RB-250 Mastertone, one of the most recognizable and sought-after banjos from Gibson’s golden era. This instrument delivers the powerful projection, crisp note separation, and rich tone that have made the RB-250 a favorite among bluegrass players for decades.
The banjo features its original Mastertone-style construction, including a resonator back, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, and classic Gibson appointments. It has developed the character and resonance that only comes from over 60 years of age and playing.
The neck is straight, the hardware functions properly, and the banjo plays well up and down the fingerboard. It shows normal cosmetic wear consistent with its age, including finish checking and handling marks that add to its vintage appeal. Please review photos carefully for condition details.
Whether you’re a serious bluegrass musician, vintage instrument collector, or Gibson enthusiast, this RB-250 represents an opportunity to own a genuine piece of American musical history.
Includes hardshell case.
Feel free to reach out with any questions, requests for additional photos, or specific measurements.
