| Recording King Ne Plus Ultra Open Back Banjo RB-O36
For sale is a brand new Recording King Ne Plus Ultra open back banjo. This puppy is VERY nice, the natural finish of the wood on the rim and the ebony skunk stripe really give it a classy look. Not to mention the Tree of Life fretboard inlay. The reason for the discount is because of a minor nick on the back of the neck and some slight discoloration in the inlay on the headstock (See Pics Below). It's not bad at all! This is a purely aesthetic issue and in no way affects the sound or playability of this banjo.
List Price of Banjo: $1,299.99 The Ne Plus Ultra is the most incredibly crafted, meticulously detailed open back banjo in the Recording King collection.
The
beauty of this model is immediate: the stunning "Tree of Life" abalone
inlay on the peghead and fretboard was designed by Greg Rich and
demonstrates his appreciation for the traditional pre-war style.
The
rim is made from flamed maple and features binding for more style.
Flamed maple is also used on the neck which also features an ebony
skunk stripe. This model features a Whyte Laydie tone ring, a Kershner
tailpiece, dual coordinator rods and 24 brackets.
This
open back has a sweet, harmonious tone that's excellent for all styles
of playing. There's a piece of history with every Recording King banjo,
and the Ne Plus Ultra is a perfect example of this.
