Product Description
“Is all the extra trouble we go through to make these instruments worth it? I believe it is. If you want to get the most out of your once-in-a-lifetime instrument, this is for you–I wouldn’t have anything less for myself.”
-Russell Cook-
The RCE includes these features:

- Highly engineered Mahogany & Redwood soundboard to add a touch of attitude
- Lower sustain Morado bridges to produce a more controlled rich and mellow tone
- Wound strings on lower courses
- Exclusive RCE soundhole inlays
- Beautiful, dark stained top, or natural finish
- Curly Maple inlaid bridge markers
- Exotic wood endrails (a favorite adornment of Russell’s!)
