Check out this very unique Tennesee Bicentennial Banjo with quite an interesting history!

This bicentennial banjo was made in Nashville, Tennessee in 1975 by the legendary "Tut" Taylor and his Tut Taylor Music Company. Robert "Tut" Taylor was a huge part of Nashville, Tennessee's Americana and Bluegrass history as a world-renowned dobro player who used a distinctive flat-picking style in his playing. In 1975, the Tut Taylor Music Company was licensed by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration to manufacture these handmade commemorative 5-string banjos. These instruments were available in both finished and kit form and were marketed throughout the country in honor of the Bicentennial Celebration.
