A well-preserved Blue Bell RB-600 banjo from Japan, dating from the 1970s. Manufactured in the same workshop as the Ibanez Masterclones, but rebranded for the Japanese market. Stylistically, it is a Gibson RB-250 replica.
The banjo is made of mahogany with an ebony fingerboard. There are only a few marks on the finish, and the resonator is in very good condition. The banjo has a brass flathead tone ring and a two-piece flange.
Everything has been cleaned and readjusted: the head, co-rods, truss rod; new strings have been fitted, and the fingerboard has been oiled. Comes with the original case and a vintage leather strap.
Postage available.
