The Recording King Dirty 30s Minnie Bucker (Model RPH-R2-E-MBL) is an acoustic-electric resonator guitar built for players who want real resonator character in a body that goes anywhere.
It starts with the cone. The 9.5" hand-spun European resonator cone delivers the classic, throaty, honky voice you want from a resonator guitar. A pedestal sound well with sound posts supports the cone and lets its vibrations move through the full cavity of the body. Unplugged, the sound is dry, immediate, and full of character.
Plug in and the mini humbucker takes you from a swampy touch of dirt to full blues crunch. It’s warmer and thicker than a single-coil, with enough output to push an amp without burying the acoustic personality underneath. Roll back the volume for a cleaner, more acoustic sound, or push it forward and let the amp do the rest. You can shape your tone with just your hands.
The single-O body and 12-fret dovetail neck joint make this a lively, loud, resonant guitar that’s easy to carry. A spruce top, white wood back and sides, Nato neck, and ovangkol fretboard keep it lightweight and comfortable, whether you play seated or on your feet. A bone nut helps keep the fundamentals solid.
Checkerboard purfling, f-holes, and a matte Wabash Blue finish give the Minnie Bucker a look as distinctive as its name.
