This was my brother-in -law's(Kingston Trio fan)banjo. He bought it new and had it shipped to Alaska( in the Air Force) but the original neck was damaged so he bought the new neck and that is why there is an old and new serial numbers.The original receipt(1963) shows the Gibson Rb180 and case new.The only thing wrong are a few minor dings and finish crazing in photos 7- 10. I will ship the banjo boxed in the worn case.I will try to ship the stand in the carton as well.You can do a search on the Gibson RB180 to find out any specific info. I don't know anything about banjos.Any questions or photos needed please inquire and I'll do what I can.
