Product Overview
Recording King RM-997E-VG Swamp Dog Metal Body Resonator Guitar w/ Pickup, Vintage Green
From the distressed bell brass body to the retro-inspired patina, the Swamp Dog is as bold in appearance as it is in tone. This new model honors the raw sound of pre-war resonators, delivering gritty midrange growl and bark that cuts through the mix—whether you're fingerpicking Delta blues or sliding through a swampy Americana set.
With the addition of the USA-made Fishman Nashville pickup, the Swamp Dog goes from vintage voice to electrified beast. Designed for the rigors of the road and the precision of the studio, the Nashville biscuit-style pickup captures every nuance of the cone and biscuit bridge, translating your playing with faithful, natural tone. It’s plug-and-play resonator perfection.
