Blues legends have trusted the iconic Duolian sound since 1931, and now this legendary resonator guitar returns with modern refinements that honour its storied heritage. The Regal RC2 Duolian Metal Body Resonator Guitar combines the authentic brass‐body construction and single‐cone design that made the original a favourite amongst blues masters.
This updated Duolian features significant improvements including a fully adjustable neck mechanism, premium rosewood fingerboard, and a 14th‐fret neck joint for enhanced playability. The brass body construction maintains the distinctive metallic resonance that has defined the Duolian’s signature tone for over nine decades.
The Regal™ brand continues the tradition of quality craftsmanship while incorporating contemporary upgrades that make this instrument suitable for today’s musicians. These thoughtful enhancements ensure the RC2 Duolian delivers both the classic sound players expect and the modern functionality they require.
