Dirty 30s Series 9 12-String Dreadnought

Recording King

collapse expand iconDescription

The Dirty 30s Series 9 models take the vibrant tone of a solid Sitka spruce top and combine it with Recording King's super-clean Cross Lap bracing for the best-sounding Dirty 30s models yet. Now they've expanded the Series 9 to include the RDS-9-12-TS Series 12-string dreadnought acoustic. The Cross Lap bracing is modified on the RDS-9-12-TS to include the "Double X" for extra stability, while keeping the excellent sound transfer of the standard Cross Lap design.

The RDS-9-12-TS is specced for great sound with a bone nut and saddle and D'Addario strings, and its look captures the evolution of the Dirty 30s vibe with its transparent Tobacco Sunburst finish, ivory large dot fret markers and RK Whitley pickguard.

Case sold separately.
