Sweetwater players love this guitar’s distinct raspy lo-fi voice; it’s a time capsule of tone that responds well to slide playing of melodies, chords, and more.Built for comfort This guitar is built for comfort with a number of upscale features that won't break the bank. A shapely round-shouldered body ensures vintage articulation and playability that’s made for travel, gigs, or simply keeping it within reach and on display in your living space. Meanwhile, a comfortable mahogany neck and padauk fingerboard ensure great playability whether you’re plucking intricate dusty melodies or wailing on your Great Depression-era tune with a slide. This neck is “squarestyle” with a flat radius, meaning its built for lap-style players. If you prefer a resonator that’s played upright, Recording King also offers this same instrument in a roundneck style.Triple the cones, triple the power Recording King went to great lengths to ensure this resonator has stellar volume and projection; its body is made from only the finest bell brass with a design that’s faithful to the original tricone resonators of the 20th century. This body yields distinct metallic tone that’s not only classic and rich, but also a little rough around the edges, just like it should be. Sound is further amplified by three handspun cones joined by a brass pan soundwell with stylish grille brass vents. This tricone system outperforms single cone resonators when it comes to volume, projection, and sustain. In summary, the brass body tames and warms the Tricone’s power (without muting it) for a big sound that's brimming with overtones. And at either end of this guitar, you’ll find premium hardware that leaves nothing to chance: there’s a bone nut, a hardwood ebony saddle, a sandcast bridge, and sturdy nickel tuners with an 18:1 ratio for reliable and smooth workhorse performance 24/7.Recording King: retro refreshed The landmark Recording King brand traces its origins back to 1930s building contracts with the retail titan Montgomery Ward. During the early days of radio and recorded music, affordable but well-crafted Recording King guitars, banjos, and resonators swept across the nation far and wide. Now revived, Recording King hearkens back to those early days of production-line American instruments built for pros and budding musicians alike. Nearly a century later, these retro models take their cues from vintage designs for results that look and sound like their 1930s counterparts.Recording King Resonator King Tricone Squareneck Resonator Guitar Features: Squareneck tricone resonator, intended for lap-style playing (roundneck model also available) Nickel-plated bell brass top, back, and sides deliver incredible projection with classic resonator tone Slim round-shouldered body makes for a highly portable and comfortable instrument 3 handspun resonator cones deliver band-level volume with bell-like clarity Open pan soundwell and grille-style bell brass vents creates signature chime and a stylish look Vintage design that used formative pre-WWII resonators for inspiration Comfortable satin-finished mahogany neck with a square profile Smooth fingerboard carved from hardwood padauk with 19 frets and a flat radius Sturdy nickel tuners with black button covers and 18:1 tuning ratio for fast and precise tuning Premium hardware increases resonance (a bone nut, ebony saddle, and sandcast bridge) SpecificationDetail Resonator Type Tricone Number of Strings 6 Body Shape Tricone Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Style No Cutaway Color Natural Finish Nickel-plated Top Material Bell Brass Back & Sides Material Bell Brass Body Bracing Brass "Pan" Soundwell Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape Square Fingerboard Material Padauk Fingerboard Inlay Abalone Dots Number of Frets 19 Scale Length 25.5" Tuning Machines Open Gear with Black Buttons Bridge Material Sandcast T-bridge Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Ebony Nut Width 1.9" Strings D'Addario, .016-.056 Case Included Sold Separately RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
