Subject: RE: BS: A cure for Banjo Aquisition Syndrome?
That's right Steve but it would have to be that year, that model, (Granada) with a real Gibson 5-string neck, flat head tone ring, all serial numbers matching and in like new condition. It would HAVE to be a real 5-string, original flat head and not converted from an arch top TB like the one on Ebay. You probably can't find one like that in the US or Canada anymore. You would have to go to Japan if you wanted one and buy it through an agent. Gibson didn't make very many RBs in 33, mostly TBs so a 5-string was a rare bird to start off.
