Recording King RPS-7-E-BRB Electro-Acoustic Guitar

The service from Bax was excellent. Guitar arrived promptly and in good condition. Good price too.

The guitar itself is well-made, has a good neck for what it is and with a setup and better strings sounds and plays great. My only criticsm would be RK's quality control as the one I received had one of the nut slots (high E) cut too low and was unplayable - open and first fret note was the same!

I didnt regard this as serious enough to return since overall the guitar is exactly what I expected and I have no real complaints. I fitted a new nut and am very happy with it now.

Firstly, I thought Bax's service was good - I ordered the guitar on Saturday night and received it on Monday. The instrument was securely packaged. The guitar itself seems well made - the only slight criticism (and I mean slight) is that there is a small amount of bleed of the paint on the back of the neck onto the fret board. This is only noticeable when viewed critically from close up. It sounds great played acoustically, especially on old-timey sort of music and is easy to play. Four days after receiving it I submitted an acoustic finger-picked blues onto an internet forum and received many compliments about the guitar. I haven't played much through the amp yet, but in both modes it sounds nice and bright. There's a bit of whistle on the strings, which I may change - but I don't want to lose the old-timey chime. I like the neck but it's not ideal for slides - there seems to be a bit of friction - nothing major. The guitar is very light and I like the parlour size - it's convenient for taking to other places to play. Overall - I think it's a great guitar - it sounds good, is easy to play and looks so cool! I haven't tried it with a slide, yet.

Exactly what you expect for the price. This little parlour guitar is rough around the edges, but it has a charming, punchy sound, and sounds great for slide. Needs a little setup when it arrives.
