The neck joint terminates at the 12th fret, a feature that softens the string feel for buttery smooth action. Meanwhile, a comfortable gloss-finished mahogany neck and premium rosewood fingerboard ensure smooth-flowing fretting up and down. This neck is “roundneck” with a curved "C" neck carve, meaning its built for upright play like a traditional 6-string guitar. If you prefer a resonator that’s played lap style, Recording King also offers this same instrument in a squareneck style.Mahogany delivers tight tonal focus! Laminate mahogany forms the bulk of the Professional Roundneck Resonator. The sides, back, and top yield tight tonal focus with a knife-like midrange and excellent sustain that slide-style players are sure to appreciate. A gloss finish is the chef’s kiss on the body, a touch that protects your resonator and shows off plenty of gorgeous wood grain. Inside sits additional wood bracing carved from Sitka spruce that guarantees a balanced response with better volume and projection than a resonator without any bracing. And of course, beyond wood, the Professional Roundneck features a stylish hand-spun spider resonator cone made from only the finest aluminum for the authentic, pure resonator tone that Recording King is so known for.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 Professional Roundneck Resonator Features: Comfortable square-shouldered body shape yields good volume with stronger definition than a round-shouldered body Hand-spun resonator cone with parallelogram soundwell, made from aluminum for shimmering professional tone 12th-fret neck joint means a more relaxed string feel Internal Sitka spruce bracing and dual grille holes manage frequency response for even lows, mids, and highs Gloss-finished back, top, and sides built from laminate mahogany deliver a tight, focused voice with brawny sustain Smooth mahogany neck with a gloss finish and a comfortable “C” profile Premium ebony fingerboard with 19 frets and stylish ivory binding Open-gear tuners with black button cover and 18:1 tuning ratio for fast and precise tuning Spider-style bridge, ebony/maple saddle, and bone nut for enhanced resonance and sustain SpecificationDetail Resonator Type Spider Number of Strings 6 Body Shape Square Shoulder Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Style No Cutaway Color Vintage Sunburst Finish Gloss Top Material Mahogany Back & Sides Material Mahogany Body Bracing Parallelogram Soundwell Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape C Fingerboard Material Ebony Fingerboard Inlay Pearl Dots Binding Ivory/Black/White Number of Frets 19 Scale Length 25.5" Tuning Machines Open Gear with Black Buttons Bridge Material Sandcast Spider Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Ebony Nut Width 1.6875" Strings D'Addario, .013-.056 Case Included Sold Separately RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
