1930's Resonator Guitars - National vs. Dobro..

Reso-regards, everyone!!! Here's four very different resonator guitars, tuned to open C (Vestapol). Just for the fun of it, like a comparison and demo of the various resonator systems and tone difference. One is even not truly a resonator but a "faux-bro" without the internal resonator cone.. All made in the US during the 1930's. In this clip the fiddle-edge Dobro has a biscuit-style single cone installed instead of the original spider-bridge system.. Just a test, more volume and bass!! Now it's back to original again.. The slide is a TRIBOTONE, a truly remarkable slide!!
