Kevin Kopp RJ - Prototype #1 2018

The RJ has come into the Kopp Shop with a bang. This little blues monster doesn’t stop at old time delta blues, it will follow you anywhere. Tones are punchy, articulate, and full sounding. One could call it a small bodied K-200. Maybe a K1. All we know is that this guitar is oozing voodoo. It started out with a body design that has some serious history over the years. Kept the build light and comfortable: thin scalloped braces to add strength and character of tone, and a super thin finish to round it out. Overall, this guitar treads with much more than is expected from its size. The RJ is here to stay!

Gritty tone that lends to a solid treble and a bass that bounces. It has good sustain with a woody harmonic finish. What the bottom end lacks in resonance due to its size, it makes up for with exceptional balance and lasting clarity.
