National Reso-Phonic Style "O"
Unknown brand · acoustic guitar
The National Reso-Phonic Style O recreates the single-cone resonator National built in the 1930s: a nickel-plated brass body — not wood — with a 9.5-inch spun aluminium cone under a biscuit bridge doing the work a soundboard normally does. The body is etched with the Hawaiian palm-tree scene that identified the original, and the metal construction plus cone give the loud, cutting, midrange-dominant voice of pre-war bottleneck blues.
