Information regarding our new ARTIST ENDORSEMENT POLICY.

We are changing some things up with the business. As most of you know, we are a small company. We don't have much overhead. And we like it that way. What we are doing is getting rid of artist endorsements so to speak. I know that might seem weird but let me explain. Im going to use a 4x12 guitar cabinet as an example.


If you go look on our page, these cabinets are listed for $1099 loaded with Celestion V30. Someone applying for an endorsement may be able to get that cabinet for a much lower cost. Depending on their activity as a band. We have 3 levels of endorsements. Well, instead of doing this we are just lowering our prices dramatically. So that everyone gets the same price on products. Which our whole goal in the beginning was to sell high quality gear at affordable prices. You might think.....well this takes the fun out of endorsements. Not necessarily. We will still offer certain services and products and options exclusively for our artists. One thing in particular are free upgrades, such as cabinet color or custom grill. We will also offer a little better pricing for those buying multiple products. Bands may also be eligible for signature products. If you come to us and order a custom design of your own and we build it and like it.....we might produce it.....slap your name on it.....and sell it as YOUR very own signature series. Kinda like when EVH was involved with PEAVEY. (See our Nick Perri Signature Series) We will also give you a percentage of the sales of that design. So there are multiple ways to be part of the RDK Sound Family, but to make things easier for everyone, the pricing that will be on our "soon to be updated" products page will apply to everyone. We get A LOT A LOT A LOT of emails of guys who are asking for endorsements and expect us to send them free stuff. Unfortunately that just can't happen. And I honestly wish it could, but like I said, We're just some guys who turned a hobby into a business and we aren't getting rich on this stuff to say the least. We really appreciate everyones interest in our products and company and we try to go above and beyond and do what we can to help out our fellow musicians.


~Love you all

Happy New Year!

So far 2013 has been great to us. We've had not only the chance to establish new product designs, but new relationships and that is what feeds the fire for us. There really is no greater feeling than connecting with another musician and helping to achieve their tonal goals. Or as we like to say around here, going to the "Tone Zone!" See you at NAMM :)

The Rose Hill/Photo Shoot

 Let us welcome The Rose Hill into the RDK family! 

The Rose Hill has been taking the Cincinnati metal scene by storm since 2007. After a name and several lineup changes, they found themselves under the wing of Sancrosanct Records. Since then they've been hitting the road and taking the ministry with them. RDK is proud to endorse and support bands with such drive and conviction. Keep an eye out for these guys and gals.

In October we did a photo shoot introducing our standard series of cabinets. This included a 2x12, 3x12, and 6x12 guitar cabs as well as an 8x10 bass. In this series we're keeping to the sealed back/front loaded design with Eminence selection speakers. A few things we've added to the designs are recessed handles/jack plates and the grey grill cloth. Before long each cabinet produced will be featuring ID plates with model/production no., ohm, and power rating specific to that cabinet. 

Hello, Los Angeles!

We're quite proud of this build. Its an original designed 4x12 for a gentleman by the name of Nick Perri. Nick is a guitarist, tattoo artist, and entrepreneur in Los Angeles, Ca. He owns a tattoo shop called Perri Ink, builds custom guitars and motorcycles.  Nick toured the world with musical acts Shinedown, Silvertide, and a new self titled project, Nick Perri. The design of this cabinet was inspired by one of Nick's custom guitars, The Anthem (see video below). Needless to say this was a fun project and we're looking forward to working with Mr. Perri in the future.

Poor photo quality, but you get the idea. This is our original designed MadMan 6x12. The top 4 speakers are sealed in their own compartment while the bottom two 12s are separated/sealed/ported. Welcome to the TONE ZONE!
