Recording King RKT-05 Dirty Thirties

General

The Recording King RKT-05 Dirty Thirties is an open-back tenor banjo. Its four strings are tuned to C-G-D-A, which will be familiar to any musicians used to playing mandolin, cello, viola or violin. All of the instruments in Recording King's Dirty Thirties series have a traditional look and an authentic sound, and this open-back banjo is no exception. The laminated maple rim and rosewood fretboard not only give this banjo a beautiful appearance, but also a fine feel and a sparkling sound. It's the perfect instrument for playing old Dixieland and traditional Celtic music.
