A Fun, Retro-style Open-back Banjo
Boasting a classic sound and a historic design, the Recording King Dirty 30s packs tried-and-true playability and eye-grabbing looks into a retro-style open-back banjo. The supremely lightweight Dirty 30s is tailor-made for singer/songwriters, folk musicians, and busking troubadours of all stripes. Regardless, this banjo's cozy maple neck and smooth revebond fingerboard ensure a comfortable playing experience in any application. Decked out in a great-looking satin finish, the Dirty 30s open-back banjo features a multi-ply rim, Presto-style tailpiece, and top-quality Remo Recording King banjo head.
Teeming with old-fashioned charm
The Recording King Dirty 30s evokes the nostalgic charm of the original Montgomery Ward mail-order banjos from the early 1900s. This old-fashioned instrument boasts plenty of period-correct features, including a multi-ply rim and a Presto-style tailpiece. Here at Sweetwater, we've found the Dirty 30s to be a great traveling companion, thanks to its extra-light weight. Additionally, its relatively mellow tone (as compared to a resonator model) makes the Dirty 30s an ideal banjo for lower-volume applications.
