#gretschguitars #resonatorguitar #nationalguitars not affiliated with any brands mentioned in video, all gear was purchased with my own money This video is a discussion of a 'high end' resonator vs a 'budget' resonator. I go over a bunch of the differences I notice between my National and Gretsch resonator guitars as well as do some sound/tone demos side by side. I've owned the National for about 6 years and the Gretsch for about 10 years.
