    I just bought one with the goldfoil pickup. That's the slide sound I've been looking for ever since I smashed up my first guitar 50 years ago! I've got a brass resonator but it doesn't do it for me like this does. My search is over. Who knew I needed to go cheaper? Perfect.

    RK really does make incredible guitars and sell then at ridiculously low prices.
    I’ve owned a Dirty 30s parlor 12 fret in tobacco burst, for a few years now. It has the basic dot inlays and no electronics. I bought it “new open box” for under $150, incl shipping! Love it!
    Solid spruce top, Martin-like scalloped x bracing, bone nut and saddle, great tone and so fun to play. I did have to put quite a bit of work into sanding/rounding/polishing the fret ends and lowering recrowning a couple high spots on the 14th and 15th frets, but I have the tools and experience, so it was easy to correct. If you don’t, take it to a luthier for a good setup and you’re good to go.
    Great stuff!

    I had one of these a few years ago(they've been out in America for a bit longer) and I loved it. It sounds a little tinny, which many people don't like - but they play very well and are incredibly portable guitars. I only let go of mine because my little cousin wanted to learn guitar and she needed something that was closer to her size

    I bought one of these (with a built in pick-up) two years ago for one reason only: I wanted to have another acoustic to play in Nashville tuning (high strung). It's such a cool sound to use for recordings and make everything sound really wide for the price of a pedal. Never regretted it.

    If anyone thinking of grabbing one of these bad boys then don’t hesitate. This was my first guitar and it’s sound is the reason I fell in love with playin. I ash my cigarettes on it while I’m laying on my couch playing it and when I’m done I just throw it wherever. It’s got a bunch of nicks and scratches and the necks all gunked up with the markers scratched up and fading away but tbh I love it’s patina look. It’s not a Prs p20 or a guild 240 but it’s not suppose to be that, it’s the old American beater. It’s my daily driver earning it the nickname “ol trusty”. And for 150 bucks I can take that baby with me anywhere without fear of damage!

    This obviously isn't everyone's experience, as I see a lot of positive comments here, but while working as a guitar repair tech I have worked on probably a dozen or more Recording King instruments (acoustics + banjos) and every single one was horrifically bad. Failing glue joints on the neck and bridge, broken plastic nuts/tuners/bridges, peeling fake plastic headstock veneers, rocking saddles and lifting bridges, failed braces, dried glue squeeze out everywhere, scratchy fret surfaces and fret edges like razor blades (no fretwork to speak of)... I would avoid these and save your money.

    I got one of the dirty 30s acoustic just about a year ago. Love playing it and it's my main go-to for learning and daily practice. I don't like the tuning machines though and was considering getting some better ones installed. Any opinion on doing this? Good move, bad move?

    This might be a terrible idea but was thinking about it today. Would you ever consider doing the how to sound like ... videos but using modelling amps? I am very limited on space so I cant have a pedalboard really. I have a boss katana and have just ordered a positive grid Spark and was wondering if you could possibly try replicating artists tones using amps similar which you sell at Andertons. I know there is a tone cloud and katana patches however it would be good to see the process and thought behind working out the tones etc using the tools in the modelling amps

    They have something of the look, but the tone of those old catalogue guitars owes a lot to the ladder bracing they used back then. The irony is that if you want a modern guitar that's braced like an 30's Stella, you have to spend $1000's on a Waterloo, Fraulini, Hauver etc.
