I thought I would start a owners group for those with a Crowe powered Gibby. You dont HAVE to be a owner to join, you just need to admit the Crowe ring is the best ring Gibson has put in a banjo for quite awhile LOL

Why dont we start by tellin what we play. I'v got a RB-75VL and love it. The wife knows I have "special" feelings for it LOL

	kjcole says: 2/2/2011 8:44:39 AM Ok. I'll admit that the Crowe ring is special. That's why I bought one from Bill Sullivan (apparently he kept the blems that Gibson wouldn't take from him), mounted it on a factory floor rim, stuck a custom maple neck from Bill on it. Love it. Kind of a cross between the Rb-75/Blackjack sound and the Granada sound. Kelly

	Logtown says: 6/17/2012 5:23:39 PM Got one Blackjack last week, serial # 75-0406-54. Loved it so much I just got another one on the way, serial # 75-0405-31. I also have a Scruggs Golden Deluxe. Love both the Scruggs and Blackjack. Two unique sounding instruments. Just something special about that Blackjack! Sorry...make that two! :)
