Artist RS10EQ Sunburst Resonator Guitar w/ Pickup

Introducing the Artist RS10EQ Resonator, a vintage-voiced blues box built to growl, sing, and slide with attitude! If you’ve been chasing that unmistakable metallic snap of a classic resonator, the RS10EQ delivers it in spades. With a throwback sunburst finish, traditional F-hole design, and unmistakable tone, this guitar is made for players who want their sound to cut through with clarity and punch. Whether you're fingerpicking old-time standards or laying down greasy bottleneck licks, it responds with warmth, volume and plenty of character.

The body is built with laminated Nato back and sides and a Nato top capped with a Basswood veneer, giving it a balanced voice with tight low end and strong projection. The neck is a bolt-on C-shape design made from Nato, topped with a Purple Heart fingerboard featuring a comfortable 14-inch radius. With a 25-inch scale length and 19 medium jumbo frets, it handles both traditional slide work and standard fretting with ease.

At the heart of the RS10EQ is a ceramic humbucker pickup rated at 10.2k ohms. It captures the raw, dynamic tone of the resonator and translates it beautifully when amplified, making it just as comfortable on stage as it is on the front porch. The saddle and bridge are built as a one-piece unit, with a maple top and purpleheart base, similar to the design used on banjos. This adds a touch of snap and sustain while keeping everything tight and resonant.

Chrome-plated tuners keep things solid up top, and the 43mm bone nut offers excellent string vibration transfer for improved sustain and clarity across all six strings. The RS10EQ comes strung with D’Addario EXP16 coated strings straight out of the box. If you're looking for a resonator that sounds the part, looks the part and plugs in without fuss, the Artist RS10EQ is the guitar for you!
