Regal Duolian Resonator Polychrome Guitar RC-1

The Duolian Resonator Guitar was a favorite with blues legends such as Son House, Bukka White and Tampa Red when it first appeared in 1931. In the days before electric amplification, blues musicians were looking for an instrument that could produce the volume they needed while still maintaining the tone they required. The Duolian was the answer. The RC-1 comes in steel with a gun-metal gray polychrome finish.
