{"title":"Recording King BM70 Bluesmaster","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Recording King BM70 Bluesmaster is the rosewood version of the short-scale 00 in the 2026 Standard Series. It shares the BM60's 24.8 inch scale, rectangular bridge, Firestripe pickguard and black headstock veneer, but solid East Indian rosewood back and sides under the thermo-cured solid Sitka spruce top give it more bass and a longer ring, so it sounds a little bigger than a 00 has any right to. It is $949.99 in Natural and $999.99 in Blacktop, a low gloss black top over the natural rosewood body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would point the BM70 at a blues or fingerstyle player who wants the easy feel of a short scale with rosewood depth behind it, and who likes a guitar that looks like it came out of a 1930s catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"pre-order-deposit-only-recording-king-bm70-bluesmaster-00-acoustic-guitar","title":"*Pre-Order Deposit ONLY* Recording King BM70 Bluesmaster 00 Acoustic Guitar","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a deposit toward a Recording King BM70 Bluesmaster Natural, not a specific in-stock instrument.
