DESCRIPTION.
_____________________________________________________________________________Stock Number: VTGC1033.Many players prefer the sound of the steel bodied Tricones to Brass ones....especially for blues. While Tricone models already have an advantage over single cone resonators in terms of sustain; it is thought that steel bodies add a texture and a little volume to them as well. It is suggested that the National ResoPhonic Polychrome Tricone offers a very complex tone with lots of harmonics and overtones.This Polychrome Tricone has a Steel Body, 12-Fret Round Profile Maple Neck, Bound Rosewood Fingerboard with MOP Dot Inlays & Bone Nut, Solid Peaked Peghead with "Ebonoid" Vintage Art Deco Style Engraved Facing, Kluson-like, but "Grover Deluxe" stamped Enclosed Tuners, and Baked Powdercoat Finish.Quote from Vintage Guitar Info's National Resonator page....the full text can be seen on this link....http://www.guitarhq.com/national.html"As mentioned above, vintage National resonators aren't for everyone. Vintage Nationals are peculiar, and you have to know what to look for. NEW National resonators have become very popular. They have adjustable necks and sound great. One of the best sounding new National is the "polychrome" tricones. With a steel body and three resonators, these are great guitars."Further quote from Bob Broznan's Official Website - "The Authority on National Guitars"...."Most tricone models are made from brass. The Polychrome Tricones are made from steel - a NEW concept pioneered by National Reso-Phonic, in order to get that tricone sound into the hands of working musicians. There is no difference in the quality between a steel- and a brass-bodied guitar - only the type of metal and finish. The steel models are finished with a cool industrial powdercoat enamel in several colors. The brass-bodied models are nickel plated, with various ornamental engravings available. The finish makes NO difference in the sound, and the body material makes about a 5% difference in sound - not better or worse, JUST DIFFERENT. Again, if pressed, I would venture to say that the steel body has a very slightly more blues tone. The brass body has a very slightly more sophisticated tone, which INCLUDES that blues tone, but may work a little better than the steel when playing Hawaiian, jazz, or other kinds of music."....full text from this site on this link:-http://www.bobbrozman.com/national.htmlA further link to Jake Wildwood's Antebellum Instruments Blogspot review of National Polychrome Triconehttp://antebelluminstruments.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/1999-national-reso-phonic-polychrome.html ______________________________________________________________________________PRICE. £1,999.00.______________________________________________________________________________ I invariably offer my guitars on a "Buy it Now" basis, correspondin
