General

The Recording King RU-998 Metal Body is a unique instrument. Essentially, it's a cross between a resonator and a ukulele. The result is an instrument with a stunning appearance and a great sound. You won't find another ukulele that looks or sounds quite like this one. As well as giving the RU-998 its own sound, the metal body is simply lovely to look at too.

Recording King

Recording King has been designing guitars and banjos since the 1930's, a period also known as the Golden Age for musical craftsmanship, and instruments developed in this period are among the most respected and desirable ever made. Today, Recording King's instruments are manufactured in the United States and in China. Guitars and banjos carrying the Recording King name ensure you years of playing pleasure. Not only that, but these instruments are often passed on from generation to generation; such is Recording King's quality. Along with guitars and banjos, Recording King also make lap steel and resonator guitars.

Recording King RU-998 Metal Body tenor ukulele

Escribió lo siguiente sobre Recording King RU-998 Metal Body tenor ukulele
Only just bought this ukulele, and played it for the first time in a Christmas concert last night. As delivered it is reasonably well set up, the strings were already partially tensioned so settled in quite quickly. It looks stunning and sounds really good. So why only three stars? Well there are three reasons.



Firstly, and major reason is that, despite what the BAX website says, this is NOT a TENOR ukulele, it is a CONCERT size. It has virtually the same overall length as my Islander Concert Ukulele and the fret spacing from nut to 12th fret is definitely concert size at about 19cm , considerably smaller than the 22.5cm length of both of my Tenor Ukes.



Secondly - for an instrument of this price the friction peg tuners are not good quality - not the worst I have ever seen, but not very smooth to use, so tuning is a chore. I replaced them with a set of Grover friction pegs.



Finally - the fret markings are not repeated down the edge of the fretboard. A sad omission for a ukulele of this price.



All that said, I am actually very pleased with this purchase. The concert size makes the tone brighter, which I think is good on a resonator. It really looks the part with it's chrome finish, and belts out plenty of sound without being too over the top in our ukulele orchestra.



I don't know what make of strings are on it as supplied, but they sound pretty good, I don't feel in any hurry to change them.
