Dirty 30s Minnie Bucker Resonator
Pedestal Style Soundwell
Spruce Top
Ovangkol Fretboard
Biscuit Bridge
Hand-Spun European Recording King Cone
Mini Humbucker Pickup
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.
It wouldn’t be a Dirty 30s guitar without the classic RK design mojo, and the Minnie Bucker is no exception. Available in ultra-swampy black matte, super cool Wabash Blue (both with checkerboard purfling) and limited-run classic Brownburst finishes.
