General
Recording King's ROS-16 is an Orchestra Model acoustic steel-string guitar, also known as a triple O. This particular model is a 12-fret OOO-style guitar based on a classic design from 1902. A characteristic feature of this model is that the neck is attached to the body at the 12th fret, making it a lot shorter than a traditional acoustic guitar. Additionally, the body of the ROS-16 is the same size as that of a nylon-string classical guitar, giving it a brighter, more direct tone. Combined with its extra wide neck (46 millimetres), this instrument is a finger picker's dream. It is also ideal as a slide guitar for blues, for instance.
ROS-16: traditional recipe
This acoustic guitar has a solid top made of AA-grade Canadian spruce. Compared to laminated wood, a solid top produces more volume and a richer tone. Additionally, the mahogany sides and back provide the warm, intimate sound you expect from a classic 12th-fret guitar. Moreover, the ROS-16 has several professional features that include a 20-fret rosewood fretboard and an ebony, pyramid-style bridge with a bone saddle. Together with the bone string nut, they make this guitar sound as good as it looks. The top has an elegant wooden rim with a beautiful herringbone pattern as a clear reference tot the ROS-16's heritage.

Voor deze prijs kan je deze gitaar toch niet laten liggen, geen seconde spijt gehad !
Bax bezorgt snel en goed, ik had hem de volgende dag al, netjes verpakt met meer dan genoeg stootvrij material in de doos.
BAX dank !
Rifinita in maniera incredibile, suono molto bilanciato. Una 000 degna di essere chiamata tale con un prezzo irrisorio. Manico vintage V, volute, insomma tutte caratteristiche che si trovano solo su marchi blasonati di cui questa Ros-16 è davvero un'ottima copia. La consiglio vivamente. Inclusa anche la brugola per il trussroad ed equipaggiata con corde D'Addario di serie.
Perfetti nell'imballaggio e nella spedizione.
Grazie Bax Shop!!!
De levering van Bax was overigens perfect, dus dank daarvoor!
