1930s Antique Gibson Mastertone 5 String Banjo

Description

Up for sale is an antique Gibson Mastertone 5 sting banjo. This banjo has a beautiful strong sound and is in very nice condition. This banjo hasn't been seen or handled outside of immediate family since at least 1969.  The number inside is stamped 1012-7. I've been told the rim, tone ring and pot appear to be from a 1936 Gibson TB-3, the neck is from a late 1960s RB-800, and the resonator is from a 1950s or 1960s 150 or 250. The banjo will ship in the included vintage Gibson hard case.
NOTICE! It has been brought to my attention someone named "Lester Mazur" has copied my photos and description and posted it on another site. This banjo is not for sale anywhere besides here on eBay under this account. All other listings are fraudulent!
Please ask all questions prior to committing to purchase as all sales are final. Due to a few dishonest buyers in the past who have tried to return items they damaged themselves or tried to return items that weren't even the same item that was sent to them, I will not accept returns unless a mistake is made on my end (for example, I send you the wrong item). The item shown in the pictures is the item you will receive and will be shipped in the exact condition as listed. If item is listed as pre-owned or used, it will be sold in "as is" condition. I know I'm always anxious to get an item that I've ordered, so I try to ship all items within 48 hours of your payment being received and a tracking number is always provided. Please know that I have NO control of the item once it leaves my possession. Keep in mind... Roads flood. Highways ice over. Trucks break down. Holidays come and go. Sometimes shippers make mistakes and sends packages in the wrong direction. Unfortunately I can't control the weather or unexpected events and occasionally deliveries can be delayed. It's not the end of the world, just be patient and you'll have your item in a few days. If your item is late, contact me and I'll work with you on trying to locate your package. Please be patient while the shipper does it's work.
