1930s Regal Le Domino

The Le Domino family of instruments were built through the late 1920s and 1930s. Originally produced by J.R. Stewart in Chicago, the Le Domino models, along with all of Stewart's other production, were built by Regal by the time this guitar was made in the early 1930s.


The Le Dominos are among the most appealing depression-era decorated guitars in many people's eyes. The black finish and domino decals are both classy and tastefully stylish, and the guitar's light build and ladder-bracing offer a particularly warm and focused tone. There's a lot to fall for here.



A particularly clean and well-preserved example, this guitar shows very little playwear and has been carefully repaired here at Folkway. There are a few cleanly glued cracks on the body, the frets are dressed well, and the action is set to a manageable 6-7 64ths. It is 100% original but for newer bridge pins.



Black finished birch body with ladder bracing. Black-painted maple fingerboard and bridge, Domino decal fingerboard markers, rosette, and top decals. Short 24.5” scale neck, 1-3/4” width at the nut, and a softened V neck carve.
