getting an all solid guitar of decent quality for less would make it a better value, but since the rk is laminate back and sides, i wouldn't say it's a better value - it's less guitar for less money. i'd say the wechter is a deal.
if you want to compare to recording king, the RO-126 would be the model i think is comparable.

that being said, the few wechters i've seen are very nicely made, well finished, and if they're a little brighter than some guitars, they have a pleasing tone. i haven't seen the model you're getting, and i am very curious about it. maybe when we go to mccabe's this weekend they'll have one in as they had a few wechters our last 2 visits.
