About This Item
Introducing the Recording King RD-318, a remarkable addition to our prestigious Tonewood Reserve Series. This acoustic dreadnought guitar embraces the iconic style, sound, and volume that has made it a favorite among musicians for generations. With hand-selected tonewoods and vintage-inspired details, the RD-318 is a true gem in your collection. Let's begin with the foundation of this exceptional instrument - the select solid Adirondack spruce top.
Adirondack spruce is renowned for its stiffness, delivering a powerful fundamental tone and exceptional projection. It's also incredibly lightweight, ensuring that every note rings out with clarity and volume. Combined with the select solid Mahogany back and sides, the RD-318 offers a tonal palette that has driven genres like bluegrass and country for decades. Beyond its impressive tonewoods, this dreadnought guitar features elegant touches that add to its classic appeal.
The rosewood fretboard showcases low-key fretboard dots, providing a touch of sophistication. A timeless rosette design and tortoise binding complete the traditional look, while the classic black pickguard protects the precious top from scratches and strumming wear. The RD-318 is the perfect choice for players who crave the power and volume that only a dreadnought can provide, without sacrificing the warmth and vibrance that come from premium tonewoods. It offers the best of both worlds, rivaling the sound of vintage instruments at a fraction of the price. If you're seeking an all-solid dreadnought guitar that exudes timeless charm and delivers outstanding performance, look no further than the Recording King RD-318.
With its hand-selected tonewoods, vintage styling, and powerful sound, this instrument is sure to inspire your musical journey. Experience the joy of playing a truly exceptional acoustic guitar.

Recording King Steel-String Acoustics RD-318 Editorial Review
The Recording King RD-318 has garnered a mix of admiration and criticism among customers. Many users praise the guitar for its stunning aesthetics, particularly the Solid Adirondack Top and Solid Mahogany back and sides, which contribute to its overall appeal.

Overall, the Recording King RD-318 is seen as a solid choice for guitarists seeking quality sound and build at an accessible price point, though potential buyers should be aware of variability in finish quality. **
