Drawing inspiration from golden era acoustic instruments, the Recording King 00066 12-Fret Standard Series acoustic guitar combines all-solid tonewoods with traditional appointments. Solid African mahogany forms the guitar's top, back and sides, creating a cohesive all-mahogany build. Its 12-fret configuration reinforces the guitar's vintage-inspired design. The result is an instrument that balances all-solid construction with the practical details musicians rely on.
All-Mahogany Tonewoods and 12-Fret Acoustic Construction
The 00066's solid African mahogany soundboard contributes a focused, woody character with an emphasis on fundamental note clarity, while the matching back and sides support the guitar's overall resonance. Its 12-fret configuration positions the neck-to-body joint at the 12th fret rather than the more common 14th, influencing the instrument's proportions and playing layout. These construction choices give the 00066 a naturally responsive acoustic foundation while reflecting its traditional design heritage.
Traditional Appointments and Design for the Modern Guitarist
Alongside its mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard, the 00066 features a rosewood bridge and bone saddle that help transfer string vibrations to the soundboard. A bone nut and nickel open-gear tuners complete the hardware, accompanied by a low-gloss finish and included brown AGB-25 gig bag. With its all-mahogany body, traditional appointments and 12-fret construction, the Recording King 00066 12-Fret Standard Series acoustic guitar delivers an acoustic experience rooted in classic design.
