Product Description

Here's what Recording King say about the R2-E Dirty 30s Mini Bucker Resonator

The all new Minnie Bucker resonator is packed with down-low, dirty, swampy tone, thanks to the hand-spun European resonator cone and great sounding mini humbucker in the neck. 

If you’re looking to add a bit of grit to your playing, the Minnie Bucker’s mini humbucker can go from just a swampy touch of dirt, to crazy blues crunch. The responsive pickup helps tone freaks like you dial in the perfect tone using only your hands.

Adding a pickup would mean nothing if these guitars didn’t start with the most fundamental building blocks of great resonator tone. 

The top-shelf Recording King hand-spun European resonator cone delivers classic throaty, honky resonator goodness. (Always check your cones, make sure your next resonator has a spun cone, never stamped! --Travis Atz, RK Director of Product) 

Likewise, the small body design pairs perfectly with the pedestal soundwell and 12-fret neck joint for a guitar that’s lively, loud and resonant, but small enough to take anywhere. 

It sounds great acoustically too, thanks to a spruce soundboard and a biscuit bridge, so you’ll have all the classic reso sound on tap whether you plug in or not.

The guitar was great. I was undecided about buying as I'd heard some bad reviews on other sites about the guitar been tinny or poorly made. I had been looking for a resonator guitar that was affordable and this was the one that kept catching my attention. I decided to go with Andertons over other sites as the price was a little bit more and I trusted that they would at least check the instruments over some sites where I heard bad reviews about the guitar. The guitar I received sounds great. I was honestly expecting it to sound more tinny or like an acoustic but i was pleasantly surprised. The guitar is small but loud. It has a beautiful warm sound with lots of bass and that swampy kind of drive to it. I was very impressed by the sound. When I plug it into an amp it sounds even better. Almost has its own drive to it. The guitar stays in tune very well and I've had no issues with intonation or fret buzz or anything like that. Looks great, sounds great and plays great. I would recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a good affordable resonator. I would also recommend buying it from Andertons to ensure safe delivery and good quality.
