Comparing Banjos

1st is a 2014 VRB-75 Huber Truetone
2nd is a 2005 Jim Mills model Huber
3rd is a 2002 RB-3 Gibson
All setup about the same way.

number 3 just has that tone!!!

[@JH-tj9jd]

Number two had the best tone, followed closely by number one. The third banjo sounds good too. Excellent playing and a good comparison. I'm glad I listened before finding out what they were. I'm close to placing an order for a Huber Lexington and your comparison made me feel more confident about my choice.

RB3 ALL DAY!!

[@tonycooper3382]

All 3 very close

[@Bassnbanjos]

I had to see if my senses had changed any lol but As much as I love the Hubers, I gotta give it to the Rb-3 in this one. All day long

[@whatposterman1222]

Although your playing ability would make a bottlecap with a cracked head sound great, number 2 is my preference. BUT, all 3 sounded good.

[@DLBeatty]

I'm no expert, but I think #2 sounds best. :)

[@KennyHaney-iy3ob]

the huber was a great banjo. but none of them were junk.

[@timpurcell157]

The Jim Mills Huber would be my favorite tone of the three. The Gibson would be a very close second. I really like the 4th string on the Jim Mills model.

#3

[@rickyedwards7504]

Can’t tell much difference in one and three, number 2 is best much cleaner notes, others sound splattering or maybe reverb , I lick a clean bell tone

[@ryanmcgarviewheels]

Love it good job

[@Bassnbanjos]

Gibson wins by long shot to me
