In honor of the traditional yuletide season, Gibson Original Acoustic Instruments has
introduced a very special 12-piece collection of one-of-a-kind Christmas Banjos. These
exquisite works of art are from the makers of the world’s finest line of bluegrass instruments,
and they reflect the incomparable vision, skill and dedication of Gibson’s luthiers. In addition
to the elegant, figured design of the banjos’ resonator and its ornamental inlays, each
Christmas Banjo features a different holiday-themed inlay at the 12th fret. The designs for
all peghead and fingerboard inlays, including the beautiful frosted holly leaf design on the
resonator, are renderings created by noted Gibson engineer and resident artist Darron DuBose.
