Description
What makes this guitar special: As resonators go, this is the cream of the crop. Currently setup for slide, it’s got all the swampy gristle you want out of a steel-bodied resonator, with punchy, in-your-face tone, and dynamic qualities not found on your run-of-the-mill resonators. These single-cone models are modeled after the original Duolians of the ‘30s, famously used by countless bluesmen. This one captures all the spirit and tone of the originals, and is beautifully dressed up with premium features and a matte steel finish. It comes professionally setup and inspected by our expert in-house luthier to your specifications, so whether you want it in open or standard, ready for slide or picking, it’ll be ready to play when it hits your doorstep.
Cosmetic condition: Great overall condition, with some visible surface scratches, nicks, dings, and dents, and some visible tarnishing on the body. There is some discoloration along the back and on the front/side where the arm rests.
Body: Hollow steel body in powdercoat finish with single 9.5” spun resonator cone, trapeze tailpiece and biscuit bridge.
Weight: 8 lb, 15.6 oz
Neck: Chunky mahogany neck with black side dots and pearl diamond inlays. Cross-grained ivoroid bound rosewood fingerboard is in awesome shape, and frets show very little wear, with a ton of life left in them. 1 13/16” nut width, 25” scale length. Slotted headstock with ivoroid overlay and black etched national logo. Grover Deluxe tuners function perfectly. Neck is straight and plays great up and down the length of the fingerboard.
Case: Original hard shell case included.
