Recording King Tonewood Reserve RD-318 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar

Description: Premium Dreadnought Power for a Reasonable Price Recording King’s Tonewood Reserve series never fails to deliver, and the RD-318 is an authentic replication of pre-war dreadnought power! Modeled after one of the most iconic acoustics in history, the RD-318’s solid select Adirondack spruce top pumps out the massive volume and thunderous projection that ensures your playing is heard in any situation. Next, a pair of solid select African mahogany back and sides lend the RD-318 a natural articulation and crispness that pairs well with this dread’s thumping bass response. On the neck side, the RD-318 boasts a premium 1-piece mahogany construction and a gorgeous rosewood fingerboard, all carved into a thin “V” profile — a size that Sweetwater’s acoustic enthusiasts find is significantly more playable than the typical vintage guitar’s full “V” shape.

If you’re looking for a high-end, vintage-style dreadnought on a budget, you’d be hard pressed to find a guitar that even comes close to the power and vintage prestige of the RD-318.Vintage-meets-modern thin “V” neck While there are plenty of guitarists out there who enjoy the heft of a vintage-style "V" neck, there’s a good reason why most manufacturers have significantly thinned out their profile over the years. To merge the best of both old and new, Recording King’s thin “V” shape offers just enough chunk to fill out your grasp, while retaining the slick playability and fast feel that modern guitarists have come to expect from their acoustics.Ultra-premium tonewoods Each and every instrument in Recording King’s Tonewood Reserve series is comprised of absolutely top-shelf timbers, and the RD-318 is no exception! A select Adirondack spruce top serves as the foundation of this 6-string, providing an immense tonal depth and stunning response, in addition to the booming projection that's a signature of Adirondack-topped guitars. Combined with a pair of select solid Mahogany back and sides, the RD-318 wears its pre-war inspiration on its sleeves, producing a crisp, cutting tone that excels at everything from strummed accompaniment to light-speed flatpicked bluegrass runs.Recording King: bringing the sound of the past into the future Recording King’s legacy stretches all the way back to the 1930s, an era that many musicians consider to be the golden age of acoustic instruments. Originally an in-house brand for the Montgomery Ward retail company, RK closed up shop at the tail-end of the great depression. More than a half-century later, Recording King was resurrected in 2007 and has been providing musicians with world-class vintage-inspired instruments ever since! Guitars, banjos, resonators, and more: Recording King offers the incredible tone and stylings of Great Depression-era instruments, but with an updated construction for modern reliability and high performance.Recording King Tonewood Reserve RD-318 Acoustic Guitar Features: Powerful and projecting solid select Adirondack spruce top Solid select African mahogany back and sides produce a crisp, dry tone with plenty of articulation Mahogany neck carved into a thin “V” shape for a vintage feel with modern playability Smooth rosewood fingerboard with medium frets and a flat 16-inch radius Large dreadnought body shape and forward-shifted bracing for massive, booming bass response Bone nut and saddle for exceptional resonance and sustain Traditional appointments for a no-nonsense aesthetic SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Dreadnought Back & Sides Wood Solid African Mahogany Top Wood Solid Adirondack Spruce Finish Gloss Color Natural Body Bracing Forward X-bracing Binding Ivoroid/Black/White Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape Thin V Radius 16" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Mother-of-pearl Dots Number of Frets 20 Scale Length 25.4" Nut Width 1.6875" Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Bone Bridge Material Rosewood Tuning Machines Open Gear Butterbean Strings D'Addario, .013-.056 Case Included Sold Separately RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
