Recording King Dirty 30s Single 0 Parlour Left Handed Electro Acoustic Guitar in Natural Mahogany

The Recording King Dirty 30’s Series 7 Single 0 Parlor Lefty is a compact, vintage styled acoustic electric designed especially for left handed players who love roots, blues and old school character. With its all mahogany construction, comfortable parlour body and cool RK Gold Foil pickup, it delivers warm, boxy blues tones whether you are playing on the sofa, on stage or in the studio.

Blending classic looks with upgraded materials and bracing, this latest generation of Dirty 30’s guitars offers improved tone and reliability while keeping the same incredible value. The long 25.35 inch scale adds snap and clarity, the 12 fret neck joint enhances warmth and punch, and the satin finish gives a played in feel straight out of the box. Plugged in, the Gold Foil pickup serves up a clean, effortless signal that keeps all the guitar’s natural character intact.

Vintage Inspired Parlour Character

The Single 0 parlour body is compact and comfortable, with a naturally mid focused, intimate voice that is perfect for blues, folk and fingerstyle. The 12 fret neck joint shifts the bridge further into the centre of the lower bout, adding warmth, sustain and that classic, old time parlour thump that records beautifully and sits well in a mix.

All Mahogany Warmth

With mahogany used for the top, back and sides, this guitar delivers a warm, woody tone with a strong midrange and a sweet, controlled top end. Strummers get a focused, rootsy bark, while fingerstyle players will appreciate the clear note separation and natural compression that mahogany is known for.

RK Gold Foil Pickup

The factory fitted RK Gold Foil pickup gives you an instantly usable, classic flavoured electric tone without any fuss. It captures the guitar’s acoustic character with a clean, open sound that works brilliantly for gritty blues, slide, or mellow cleans, making it easy to go from living room to stage without changing instruments.

Left Handed Playability and Upgraded Details

Designed from the ground up for left handed players, the RP 30 7L MA offers a natural feel and intuitive fret access, with a comfortable neck profile and a familiar 43 mm nut width. Upgraded bracing, improved materials and thoughtful details like acrylic sound bar inlays and ivory style binding give it a refined look and feel while keeping the price within reach.

• Compact Single 0 Parlour Body - The smaller body is easy to handle and comfortable for long sessions, while delivering a focused, mid rich tone that is ideal for blues, folk and recording. It is a great choice if you want a characterful second guitar or a main instrument that will not overwhelm your voice.
• All Mahogany Construction - Mahogany top, back and sides provide a warm, balanced sound with strong mids and a smooth high end. This makes the guitar forgiving under the fingers and perfect for earthy, rootsy playing styles where you want vibe and musicality more than sheer volume.
• RK Gold Foil Pickup - The built in Gold Foil pickup offers a clean, vintage inspired electric tone that translates the guitar’s natural voice with clarity. You can plug straight into an amp or PA and get a cool, characterful sound without needing extra outboard gear.
• Left Handed Design with Comfortable Scale - A true left handed layout paired with a 25.35 inch scale length and 43 mm nut width gives familiar string tension and spacing. This helps left handed players feel immediately at home, with enough length for bright, snappy response while still being easy to bend and fret cleanly.
