Description
This new NATIONAL RESO-PHONIC ESTRALITA DELUXE model was first introduced in 2001 and features a beautifully rippled, figured Maple sunburst top, with Walnut back and sides. Mirror nickel finish on a ribbed, sieve coverplate, Ivoroid bound Rosewood fingerboard with diamond-shaped inlays and Pearloid headstock overlay with engraved National Shield logo. Gorgeous guitar with a rich and distinct deep voice.The ESTRALITA DELUXE has been the most popular wood body National of the past decade, evolving from the Jazz-Blues model. It’s very full sounding with lots of volume, and playing it will really open it up. National biscuit cones have a ‘break in’ period of several hundred hours of playing; they start out sounding really good and quickly head towards sounding really great. These are 12-fret neck guitars. The 12-fret geometry often locates the saddle more towards the center of the largest vibrating surface, which can enhance the fullness and bottom end response.ConditionNew with warranty card (will included dealer receipt), promo stickers, cleaning cloth and locking hard shell case w/ keys. Fully shop adjusted and ready to play in standard or open tuning. String height is at an optimum level for versatility. Also includes extra pack of Elixir polyweb 80/20 bronze strings
