Are there any RK RO-327 owners out there?
I’m looking at a Recording King RO-327. It’s the OOO size solid rosewood b/s and Adirondack top model. Does anyone own one or have any experience with one?

Close, for what it's worth.
I have a Recording King RO-10. All solid spruce over mahogany 000 size. It is a daily player for me. Wonderful fingerstyle and even flatpicking. Tends to muddy up some with hard strumming. Possible to play before you buy? |

I had the dreadnought version briefly about 4-5 years back, and it was a very nice, quality guitar. It played well and had great tone, but unfortunately the dreadnought size is too big and loud for my playing comfort these days.

I have had similar models RO-126, RO-227. Unfortunately, as beautiful as the RO-227 is, I found it to be quite "dead" when compared to the mahogany counterpart. I also had a RD-227 that sounded ok but a bit dull. After about a dozen different RK models I have come to the conclusion that they do a lot better making Mahogany back anbd sides guitars than Rosewood. It is the one constant that I recognize. Hell, I kept my RO-126 because I couldnt find a 000-18 that made it worth changing to., and if you look at my collection you might even believe me.

Thank you all for your comments. I’ve been a bit hesitant to pull the trigger on this for some reason. Your comments are helpful.

I’ve got an RD-310, Adi/ Mahogany and it’s been great, no problems with it at all. Seems to surprise a lot of people.

I have an RP06 Recording King that I reallylike, and have owned a couple more and all of them were a lot of guitar for the money...

I just bought one of these for $500 online. I’ve always wanted a rosewood guitar to compliment my D15, but not enough to buy something expensive. It seems like a great deal for an Adirondack top, E. Indian rosewood back and sides, and scalloped bracing, but I guess we will see (or hear) when it gets here.
By the way, what did they originally sell for new?
