    white mother of pearl for the
    Wreath Size for RB-3 banjos used at the 15th fret, not between the 20th and 21st fret.
    This inlay measures 1.515" wide and 0.563" tall.
    Top quality
    ,
    machine engraved
    MASTERTONE
    pearl name block that is a reproduction of the 1930's pre-war name blocks from that bygone era!
    This IS NOT a laser-cut automated or burn in process, but the engraving that is done on a pantograph machine and guided by hand, then the lettering is filled just like they were done in the 1930's - so these look authentic without being perfect!
    Pre-War Gibson banjo neck builders, repair people, luthiers and pearl inlay artists ... DON'T LET THESE GET AWAY!
    GET THEM WHILE YOU CAN!
