Recording
King's classic tricone resonator has three 6” Continental cones
that transfer incredibly loud tones through the body of the guitar.
The cones are positioned with two on the bass side and one on the
treble side, giving an EQ balance with a sweeter, warmer
sound.
This
tricone is made from nickel-plated bell brass and features a screen
coverplate and T-shaped bridge with an ebony and maple saddle. The
bridge is connected to the center of each cone so that when the
strings are hit, the vibrations run through the saddle and then
into the bridge. This tricone has a distinct tone and long sustain
characterized by brilliant overtones and a natural ambiance only
found in resonator instruments.
