{"title":"Recording King BM60 Bluesmaster","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Recording King BM60 Bluesmaster is the mahogany 00 in the 2026 Standard Series, and it is the one model in the line built on a shorter 24.8 inch scale. Those six tenths of an inch lower the string tension enough that bends come easier and the guitar feels slinkier under your fingers, which is why the Bluesmaster name fits. A thermo-cured solid Sitka spruce top over solid African mahogany back and sides, a rectangular bridge, a Firestripe pickguard and a black headstock veneer give it the look of a 1930s blues box, and it comes in three low gloss finishes at $799.99 apiece: Vintage Burst, Sepia Burst and Marmalade Burst.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would hand the BM60 to a blues or fingerstyle player who wants a small guitar that is easy on the fretting hand, or to anyone with smaller hands who has found full-scale guitars tiring.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"pre-order-deposit-only-recording-king-bm60-bluesmaster-vintage-burst-00-acoustic-guitar","title":"*Pre-Order Deposit ONLY* Recording King BM60 Bluesmaster Vintage Burst 00 Acoustic Guitar","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a deposit toward a Recording King BM60 Bluesmaster Vintage Burst, not a specific in-stock instrument.
