The sound really captures the spooky splang and chong and reverberation of the best vintage 30’s Nationals, except in a brand new guitar with a big life ahead of it, complete with trussrod, good intonation, and mojo to spare, with National’s super quality craftsmanship. After 2009, National replaced the heavier steel Delphi and Polychrome Tricone models with the NRP and Triolian Series…all featuring lighter gauge steel, true-to-vintage features and knockout finishes. This was the first Duolian Reproduction, and it may well surpass most vintage ones in quality and sound and playability. Slotted headstock with National stamped on it. Mahogany neck with unbound Ebony fingerboard with simple dot inlays. Lovies Guitars is offering up this National NRP Single-Cone Resonator in a Unique Green Burst Finish!
