Description
The Recording King D60 is a Standard Series dreadnought with a thermo-cured solid AA North American Sitka spruce top over solid African mahogany back and sides, finished in a natural low gloss. Thermo-curing is a heat treatment applied to the wood, and the low gloss finish gives it a satin sheen instead of a polished one.
It has the full 25.4 inch dreadnought scale, a 1 3/4 inch bone nut and a bone saddle, a rosewood fingerboard with 5mm mother-of-pearl dot inlays, and an RK belly bridge in rosewood with ebony pins. Satin nickel open-gear tuners sit on a headstock with the RK-1 abalone logo over a rosewood veneer, and a premium tortoiseshell pickguard protects the top. It ships with a brown gig bag.
We would point it at a flatpicker or strummer who wants a mahogany dreadnought with a thermo-cured top, and who is fine with a gig bag in place of a hardshell case. It is acoustic only, so anyone who needs a pickup should look at a different model.
