Product Description
Recording King's classic tricone resonator has three 6” Continental cones that transfer incredibly loud tones through the body of the guitar. The cones are positioned with two on the bass side and one on the treble side, giving an EQ balance with a sweeter, warmer sound. This tricone is made from nickel-plated bell brass and features a screen coverplate and T-shaped bridge with an ebony and maple saddle. The bridge is connected to the center of each cone so that when the strings are hit, the vibrations run through the saddle and then into the bridge. This tricone has a distinct tone and long sustain characterized by brilliant overtones and a natural ambiance only found in resonator instruments.

This review is from: Recording King Metal Tricone Resonator Guitar, Champagne Matte (Electronics)
Just bought this at Christmas 2012. I have owned two other Dobro style resonators before.This one barks pretty good, acoustically,but not quite as loud as i expected.The color is different. Like a dark tea stain.Not sure if it's chrome underneath all this color.
I have been finger picking for several years and also play the banjo. Still, it's a stretch with a bottle neck slide.
The build Recording King Metal Tricone Resonator Guitar, Champagne Matteon this guitar seems adequate,I'd gig with it, but only sitting down-it's 13 pounds of heavy!
