Recording King RR41 Rattlesnake Resonator Guitar
The Recording King RR41 Rattlesnake Resonator Guitar delivers classic blues character in a modern, reliable build. This Recording King resonator takes inspiration from traditional dobro-style guitars, including the old-school rattlesnake rattle tradition that gave the model its name.
A hand-spun European Recording King cone powers its rich, open voice. At the same time, the pedestal-style soundwell and soundposts let the cone breathe for a thick, expressive midrange—exactly what players love in great resonator guitars. Vintage-friendly features like a removable handrest, bone nut, and smooth open-gear tuners round out a guitar that’s both stage-ready and full of character.
From blues and folk to country and beyond, the RR41 offers versatile tone with unmistakable mojo. The best-selling Recording King Rattlesnake Resonator is available in either Vintage Sunburst or Vintage Brown.
