Here's a chance to get a SUPERB Delta Blues slide guitar! 1930 National Triolian Resonator Guitar in original walnut-burst finish.This is an original 1930 National and it has the worn look to prove it! It has a mojo vibe and it looks, sounds and plays just like a real National should. Check out the pics and the You Tube video demo I made. Go to you tube an after .com paste this extension: /watch?v=oU_XqaMJ8yAThe guitar is all original except that the tailpiece no longer has the original strap button, just a screw, and I think maybe a hole was added above the original hole at the base of the tailpiece. It does have lots of visible wear and usage. There is a considerable amount of finish that has worn, flaked and chipped away. The fretboard is the original "ebonized" board and is worn through at the typical chord area. If you need to play the guitar with fretting techniques, primarily, then I would recommend a neck reset. I considered it, but I only play slide on it and I can fret the guitar up to about the 7th fret easily. The action is PERFECT for slide! If you want to play slide, don't change a thing!The original decal has worn off entirely, but the serial number is fully visible and dates to 1930. There is ONE screw missing that holds the cover down. The guitar is VERY LOUD! It has a superb cut-through and bluesy-bite. The video allows you to get some idea of that.It also has a very cool vintage Gibson faux-alligator case that has seen much better days, but it's a perfect match for the guitar!I ship international.
