Discontinued, check out the new Recording King Guitars

Carolina Series guitars have the authentic tone, design and feel of an American tradition. Designed by master craftsman Greg Rich with quality control standards set by Scott Zimmerman, each guitar is handmade from hand-select woods and features pristine workmanship and a full, booming tone.

From traditional folk to progressive bluegrass, there are features on every Carolina to appeal to your acoustic style. These guitars feature a solid Engelmann spruce top, back and sides made of African mahogany, classic fittings such as butterbean tuners and hand-cut abalone/M.O.P. detailing.

The big, well-balanced tone on these guitars is exceptional especially because of the pre-war style construction. The fully scalloped forward-x bracing is a 1930's style that adds strength and resonance to lower registers and more clarity to the highs.

Carolina Series I guitars are an excellent introduction for players who want a classic pre-war style acoustic with a booming tone and excellent craftsmanship
