Description
We've used solid torrefied Adirondack spruce tops as the foundation for the RP1-16C, our 12-fret single 0 cutaway with a dreadnought scale. Not only do these guitars benefit from the vintage tone of the torrefied top, but the dreadnought scale gives them additional punch and projection beyond what you'd expect from a traditional 0 guitar.
The RP1-16C is the perfect instrument for fingerstyle players thanks to the cutaway and 1-3/4” nut, delivering even, vintage-style tone everywhere on the fretboard. Now the benefits of a torrefied top are available to everyone with Recording King's Torrefied Top Series.
