The Recording King RM-993 Metal Body Parlor Resonator puts traditional reso style into a small body guitar that packs a big punch. True resonator tone begins with a classic nickel-plated bell brass body and a full-size cone. The smaller body and 24- scale length, has all the swampiness and mid range of a classic biscuit-style metal body, but the unique design adds a little more treble shimmer, giving it extra top-end clarity.
