Recording King RAM-3-BK Dirty 30s A-Style Mandolin - Black
The Recording King RAM-3-BK Dirty 30s mandolin is the ideal choice for troubadours, songwriters, or multi-instrumentalists who desire the classic old-time sound without the expensive price tag of a vintage instrument. This traditional A-style mandolin features a solid spruce top that provides the classic "chop" and projection required for ensemble playing, paired with maple back and sides to balance brightness with woody warmth. The RAM-3-BK is finished in a striking Satin Black, giving it a bold yet vintage-inspired aesthetic. It connects a comfortable C-shaped neck to an authentic mini-Recording King Jubilee headstock, complete with ivory-button tuners and mother-of-pearl fretboard dots for a refined, rustic look.
