Product Description
The Troubadour acoustic guitar is built with the same care and attention to detail as all Recording King instruments. The Troubadour RNJ-16 was designed based on the classic Nick Lucas-style guitars of the 1920's. To achieve the classic Recording King tone, the acoustic guitar's top is made of solid Sitka spruce and voiced with hand-shaped, fully scalloped x-bracing. The back and sides are made from mahogany. The 4-1/2" extra-deep guitar body helps to add significant volume and bass for players looking for full, round tone and projection. The "C" profile neck of the Recording King Troubadour RNJ-16's is mahogany with dot inlay on the rosewood fretboard. With a classic 1-11/16" nut width, a truly historic scale length of 24-3/4" and a bone nut and saddle, the Recording King Troubadour acoustic guitar has been carefully assembled to fit vintage specifications down to every last detail.

An excellent, sweet little instrument. June 4, 2010
J. Etnier (Cape Elizabeth, ME USA)
Somehow, mysteriously, the price on this guitar dropped below $400.00 momentarily here, and I snagged one. I really like it.
With the exception of some visible glue spots inside, fit and finish are just great. Tone is even, surprisingly strong, although a bit bass-shy, just as I'd wanted for recording. A Tonerite has been sitting on the guitar for about a week now and made an amazing difference in an already very nice sounding instrument.
My only issues: no case, but I knew that, and there's no truss rod!!! I removed the cover at the head to burnish off a little flash on the cover and there's no truss rod. A space in there, where an adjusting nut should go, but nothing there.
That said, the guitar intonates excellently, and I'm very happy.
ON EDIT, several weeks later: more and more ToneRite makes a wonderful budget guitar more and more complex and satisfying to play. Very happy I chose this instrument.
