Gibson Announces New Banjo Based on one of Bernie's Instruments
Gibson's latest Style 5 banjo is modeled after one of the many instruments Bernie has played, a vintage banjo that was one of his favorites. Gibson consulted him and built the banjo with his input. Check it out on Gibson's site. Only TEN are being made, so if you're a hardcore and rich, now's your chance to own a banjo just like one of Bernie's!
