Overview

Great-looking, great-playing resonator at a gentle price.

Here it is, the singing pie-plate, the high-moanin' hubcap, the Recording King Dirty 30s Resonator guitar. Play it with finger picks or a flat pick, use a slide bar (or CoricIdan bottle) or fret it. This inexpensive resonator delivers classic style and a vintage resonator tone that is perfect for old-school blues and slide players. The single 0 size resonator drips with vibe, from the f-holes and tailpiece to the classic sunburst matte finish.

Traditional resonator sound is delivered from a hand-spun 9.5 cone in a pedestal soundwell. Soundposts surround the circle of the soundwell and the cone vibrations are free to bounce within the full cavity of the body. The f-holes are placed to optimize bass and treble frequencies as they exit the body for the perfect dry, throaty resonator tone.

Whether you're a songwriter who wants vintage blues or slide sound, or a first-time player who wants something a little cooler, get traditional resonator tone in a road-worthy small body from the Recording King Dirty 30s Resonator single 0. Recording King's Dirty 30s Series gives players authentic vintage style with the reliability of modern design.

Order today and experience the authentic feel of an early 20th century resonator guitar.
