For the money, it will do the job

Mike Savio 26.10.2020

I'll keep this quick. I was hoping to solve my lack of a spruce mahogany guitar for cheap, but I have played to many nice Yamahas and Furch guitars to really go to a guitar on this playing field... maybe I got unlucky, mine was definitely nice sounding, but I just don't feel like it has an amazing sustain out of box, or that it plays or responds as well as I'd like. It'd probably be improved greatly by setup and I didn't have mine set up... as I am also going by sound tone and I can just tell this is not the one for me.

I got both this and the adirondack offering from RK. Both would suit many different guitarists needs just not me. I like the smoothness of Sitka, that I know now, but this guitar just doesn't quite deliver what I want and I am willing to pay more to get it. I am looking into the Yamaha FG3 as the contender.

Don't get me wrong for the money you should give this guitar a try. This is the cheapest all solid guitar I'm aware of other than Harley Benton...I just feel like for me it's worth saving more money to get something special.

Thanks Thomann for letting me buy and try these guitars!

I bought this guitar based on some online reviews I saw and I think they captured the essence of this guitar: it’s a lightweight, all solid wood dreadnought with a very nice, to my ears, woody vintage tone. I had been playing smaller body guitars before I got this one. This larger body guitar made me appreciate what these larger guitars have to offer and I purchased a new Gibson J-45 standard about three months later. I still give the Recording King a fair amount of playing time. It weighs less which I like but I also like its tone, dry and woody. I wish it had a slightly wider nut but that’s just my taste. All in all, I recommend this model.

Ein Rundes gesamt Paket

Julius Lemp 24.01.2021

Ich habe mich schon seit langem nach einer Westerngitarre umgeschaut und nach langem informieren und überlegen entschied ich mich für die Recording King. Ihr Design ist wundervoll und an ihrem Klang ist nichts auszusetzen. Der Tonabnehmer ist solide und für den Preis ein rundes gesamt Paket. Das einzige was meine Freude etwas gedämpft hatte war die Materialien die gewählt wurden. z.B. die Noppen die die Seiten am Steeg befestigen sind aus sehr billigem Plastik ebenso die turning keys. Die Wahl hochwertiger Materialien würde das Instrument eindeutig aufwerten. Nichts desto Trotz gibt es nur wenig daran auszusätzen und ich kann sie jedem weiterempfehlen der nach einer Gitarre für Einsteiger sucht. Die Lieferung durch Thomann verlief tadellos und sie war bereits perfekt eingestimmt. Danke an dieser Stelle an das Team von Thomann...
Um nochmal alles zusammen zu fassen. Es ist eine solide Gitarre. Wenn man mehr will muss man mehr Geld ausgeben aber für Einsteiger und ein paar Fortgeschrittene ist sie wunderbar.

rapporto qualità prezzo difficilmente battibile

Giax87 02.02.2021

Ho comprato questa chitarra per avere un D shape che soddisfacesse l'occhio e soprattutto l'orecchio. è una full solid quindi già questa caratteristica rapportata al prezzo la rende quasi imbattibile. La finitura è davvero molto bella e tutto sommato è rifinita molto bene per un made in china. Senza molti fronzoli, quello che c'è è semplice ma ben fatto. Sbavature ridotte al minimo. Unico neo riscontrato il set up. Per i miei gusti veramente troppo generosa l'action. Anche il capotasto mi sembra un pò troppo alto, lo limerò un pochino al primo cambio corde. Il ponte ho già provveduto a limarlo per abbassare un pò l'action e con truss rod settato a dovere la suonabilità è cambiata. Manico direi un low c shape, molto sottile e di conseguenza molto comodo e scorrevole. Chitarra leggerissima e accordatura tenuta alla grande. Suono da dreadnought bello grosso ma bilanciato. Non c'è una chiara propensione verso un certo gruppo di frequenze. Tutto sommato ottimo prodotto. Non vi aspettate di prendere in mano una Gibson o una Martin, è una recording king made in china, ripeto tanto rispetto e tanta sostanza ma ovviamente non paragonabili a certe chitarre di alta fascia secondo me.
