General

The Recording King RD-06 is an entry-level Dreadnought guitar that's excellent value for money. It's known as a solid-top acoustic because it has a solid top made of Canadian Sitka spruce . The standard edition of the RD-06 has mahogany sides and back and a high-gloss lacquer finish. The top is fitted with an X-bracing which means it's reinforced towards the front, providing more space for the lower registers and extra brightness in the highs. The Sitka top produces a highly dense, rich sound with sparkling trebles. This steel-string guitar is great value for money and suitable for beginners as well as advanced musicians on a budget.

Recording King

Recording King has been developing acoustic guitars and banjos since 1930, the period many refer to as the Golden Age of musical craftsmanship. Instruments from this era are highly respected and desirable. When you buy a guitar or banjo made by them, you can count on enjoying it for years to come. In fact, a Recording King instrument can be passed on from generation to generation! Besides guitars, their assortment of instruments includes banjos, lap steel guitars and resonators.

Recording King RD-06 acoustic steel-string guitar
Wrote the following about Recording King RD-06 acoustic steel-string guitar
Een gitaar voor in de avonduren mocht ik ontvangen op 03-01-2017 de Recording King RD-06.
Prachtige gitaar niet alleen voor instappers, maar ook voor de gevorderden met een goede klank en volledig massief.
De gitaar moest wel afgesteld worden, zowel de kromming van de hals evenals de actie.
deze was te hoog en afgesteld op 2 mm op de 12 fret voor de lage E en 1,4 mm voor de hoge E.
desalniettemin een mooi afgewerkte gitaar.

Mocht ik weer een gitaar kopen, dan kom ik weer op Recording King of Sigma.

Prima gitaartje!
Ik heb alles geleerd op een elektrische maar vanwege een paar buren die het er nu niet meer zo mee eens waren heb ik voor in de avonduurtjes een akoestische gitaar besteld.

Ik speel er nu een tijdje op en ik moet zeggen dat je zeker waar voor je geld krijgt!
Hij speelt makkelijk, is lekker licht en heeft een prima geluid :)

Zoals van bax te verwachten is was alles netjes verpakt en alles was super snel binnen :)
