These are exactly like the other pips I have for sale here on eBay but these will replace a modern straight shaft pip without having to alter anything in most cases because they have a flat face that will fit right up against the fret! These are easy to install and look great on your banjo! The photograph of the straight pip that came on a 1998 Gibson RB-4 and this pip that replaced it are for an example only. Neither the straight pip or the banjo are part of this sale. They were only shown as an example. These are priced and sold each – 1 (one) unit. I have plenty, however, because I make each one by hand right here is Virginia, USA! This is the detail that is most often overlooked by builders when reproducing a pre WWII style Gibson 5-string Mastertone banjo neck. These are machine turned one at a time and although measured when produced to insure consistency, there are slight variations from one pip to the next, just as they were in the 1920s, 1930s and the 1940s at the Kalamazoo plant in Michigan. The Outside Diameter of the base of the shaft measures 0.125” within about 0.005” or so and the length of the shaft (only the part under the dome or lip base … the part that gets installed into the fingerboard) measures 0.120” in length within about 0.005” or so. The outside diameter of the flair above the base measures 0.175” and the “Brim” or seat ring are 0.040” tall give or take a few thousandths of an inch one way or the other. The crown of the pip measures 0.075” tall, again – give or take a few thousandths of an inch. The total length of these pips is running about 0.220” These pips are UNSLOTTED and ready for installation in your project or to easily replace the pip in your modern Gibson (or other) banjo. The photos you see are from a real batch of pips produced right here in my shop. They may have slight machine marks or tiny file marks on them. After working with and on original Pre-War Gibson banjos for years I can honestly say that these pips are as an exact generalized reproduction of the originals as are available. A little amber stain and you are set! These pips WILL replace a modern, 1/8” pip on a newer Gibson or most Gibson Style Banjos that are set very close to the 5th fret with no modifications in most cases. These pips are perfectly suited for use in newly constructed Pre-War Gibson MASTERTONE or sub MASTERTONE Reproduction Banjo Necks for that Authentic, pre-war look! These are the easiest pips on the market to self-install as the underside of the collar stops you at exactly the right spot every time even if you drill too deep! These are made from seasoned, bleached and machined bone, and proudly make here in my shop in Richmond, Virginia USA. Made in the USA, Made By Hand, and Made By Me! My family and I thank you for your business! Richie DotsonAcoustic Box LLC Hopewell, Virginia
