(2000) Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard Mastertone Original with 2 videos!! Has paperwork

Price: $5,700.00 USD

This is the banjo bluegrass players dream about — a Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard Mastertone, built in 2000 (serial #4025), all original and in very good condition. Small scratch on back (pictured) Be sure to listen to the attached video clips so you can hear exactly how she sings — crisp, punchy, and full of that classic Gibson bark and bell-like tone Scruggs models are famous for. I have 2 videos on my YouTube channel of my banjo being played for the 1st time since 2011, the day I put it away youtube.com/shorts/2DMJm3-RfpI...45YNKAKLK

This banjo has the looks to match the sound: a gorgeous flamed curly maple resonator and neck wrapped in a rich violin sunburst, a bound ebony fretboard with mother-of-pearl hearts-and-flowers inlay, the Mastertone tone ring, the "Earl Scruggs" signature peghead, and nickel hardware throughout. It's been loved and well cared for, stored in its case, with no modifications and no repairs — everything original right down to the bridge.

What's included:

Original Gibson hardshell case ("The Gibson" gold-embossed lid, combination lock, leather handle) — in great shape

Original tooled leather strap

Gibson factory pack-out and inspection paperwork, dated with matching serial number — rare to still have this, and it confirms the banjo left the factory exactly as you see it

Set of strings: Gibson Earl Scruggs signature gauge and GHS Professional stainless

A complete, all-original Scruggs Standard like this — with the case, the paperwork, and a voice you can hear for yourself — doesn't come around often. Ready to play on stage, around the campfire, or to anchor a collection.

Asking $5,700, open to reasonable offers. Local pickup welcome; can ship securely and fully insured if prefer message me with any questions — happy to provide more photos or another sound clip.
