I am offering a Blue Bell RB-1000 "Wreath" five-string banjo, manufactured in Japan in 1978 by Fujigen Gakki—dating from the era when high-quality instruments based on American designs were being produced in Japan. Inside the resonator, the original "Blue Bell RB-1000 – Made by Fujigen Gakki" label confirms both the model and the manufacturer.
The banjo boasts a highly attractive, classic appearance featuring ornate detailing, a decorative "Wreath" inlay on the fretboard, and distinctive binding on both the fretboard and the resonator.
It is equipped with high-quality premium Gotoh tuners and a Kershner tailpiece.
The banjo is in fantastic condition—virtually free of scratches—and looks as if it just left the factory, despite dating back to the late 1980s.
A truly interesting instrument offered at a very attractive price, delivering an outstanding, powerful, and deep "Gibson-style" sound.
