Rich and Taylor Terry Baucom 5 string Banjo

ALL OF OUR SALES INCLUDE A 7 DAY FULL SATISFACTION GUARANTEE

Description

Rich and Taylor was the company founded by Greg Rich and Mark Taylor after Greg Rich left Gibson. Rich and Taylor Banjos in many ways are better than Gibson Banjos of the same era because Greg Rich is such a phenomenal builder and he was in much more control of production at Rich and Taylor then at Gibson. These banjos are phenomenal and this is a special edition Terry Baucom who was one of the best players of our era.

This has a 3 ply hard rock maple shell. The neck and resonator are walnut. The resonator has burled walnut and the burl looks really good. This has nickel hardware and is all original including an original Tennessee 20 tone ring and a one piece flange. The fretboard is rosewood and the inlay on this is extraordinary! This is a beautiful fretboard all the way to even more inlay work on the headstock. There is w/b/w binding on each side of the neck and resonator. This is a powerful banjo with a tone that only walnut produces and it was made by Greg Rich who is like the King Midas of Banjo Building. Everything he touches turns to Gold! This also includes a hardshell case.

Condition

This is definitely a player but is in overall good shape. We have professionally cleaned this as well. We disassembled the banjo and buffed all of the metal until it shines. The wood has also been professionally cleaned to a shine. The neck and fretboard are in good shape in fact the finish on the neck looks great. There is some light button wear on the back of the resonator which is really light. In addition there is some light checking on the neck. It’s minor. The headstock has some sort of check on the front of it which is not a crack. That is a check in the finish. There is a very light split on the base of the neck heel which is pictured. It is only visible when the resonator is off. I am not worried at all about that, if I was I would get it fixed. We simply reveal everything. The case is in good shape with no functional issues.

Set Up

We professionally set this up at the Banjo Warehouse as well. The banjo has a new Remo frosted head which is set to 90 on a drum dial. This has a Yates bridge and the banjo is set with correct intonation. The strings are new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings and the action is set nicely. This is truly a wonderful player. This also is set up to maximize tone and this is absolutely a special banjo!!!

Research Greg Rich if you don’t know who he is. There is a group on Facebook to celebrate his work called Greg Rich era Gibson Banjo Collectors and Connoisseurs. This exists because his work is that good.
