Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Rattlesnake is a right-handed wood-body resonator that pairs a hand-spun Recording King cone with an open pedestal-style soundwell for the described volume and broad sonic palette. It has a Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and a solid mahogany Thin C neck. The removable handrest can be adjusted quickly during setup or maintenance. With a 25.5-inch scale, 1.75-inch nut width, Grover open-gear tuners, and no pickup/preamp, it stays focused on its acoustic resonator configuration.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Resonator parts adjustments where a removable handrest needs to be repositioned quickly.
  • Right-handed acoustic resonator playing that benefits from the Rattlesnake's described volume and broad palette.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Left-handed players; it is built in a right-handed orientation.
  • Anyone requiring a pickup or preamp built into the instrument.
