I've been following discussions and ads for prewar Gibsons - I have a 1929 Granada - for a replacement for my 1998 RB12 - it just became to heavy to play standing for any amount of time. When I found Geoff's site and banjos on Reverb I decided the best thing to do was go in person and try out a number of banjos. Best decision ever made. Geoff and Andy are great folks, and Geoff gave my free rein to try out anything I wanted. I ended up loving a TB-1 conversion - beautiful, bell-like, and sparkling sound (to my surprise and delight, much sweeter than the 4s, 3s, and 2s), and in excellent condition. Geoff was great to work with, and the trade up seamless and friendly. All around a great day and experience.
