The Recording King Dirty 30s Series sits at the perfect crossroads of classic sound and historic design.
Like the original Montgomery Ward mail-order instruments from the first half of the century, Dirty 30s banjos are the ideal companion for singer-songwriters, folk stylists, or traveling troubadours.
The Recording King Dirty 30s Resonator Banjo packs excellent playability and historic vibe into a retro-infused package.
The Dirty 30s resonator banjos, with their great-looking satin finish, maple neck, and Remo Recording King banjo head, have a classic banjo tone and are light enough to take on the road quickly.

ABOUT:
Geoff Hohwald has been playing banjo since the 1960’s. He became active in the thriving bluegrass community in Ohio as a teenager while studying at Ohio State University. He has played professionally as a guitarist and banjo player with several bluegrass bands ever since. Geoff moved to Atlanta after college and co-founded the Watch and Learn publishing company. They now publish a full line of musical instrument instruction books and digital modules. He also owned several music stores in Atlanta from the 1980s through the mid-2000s and is still an active participant in the musical instrument re-sale community in the southeast.
Banjo Warehouse is a family business resulting from 50 years of experience in music and 40 years of experience in musical instrument retail sales and education. Our focus is on the 5-string flathead banjo, but we also occasionally have a good selection of guitars and mandolins (and other folk instruments).

This variant of the venerable CC-100R features a generous nut width of 1 and 5/16" (1/8" wider than that of standard Cripple Creek models). The rolled brass tone ring and the tension hoop are thicker than those previously used, increasing the mass of the pot assembly. This results in a more powerful sound.
