National Resonator Guitars: Wood Body vs. Steel Body
In this video, SoundPure Acoustic Guitar Expert, Robinson Earle, demonstrates the differences between National Guitars wood and steel body resonators. The ResoRocket is one of our newly designed single resonator guitars. This model incorporates a redesigned coverplate pattern to complement the distinctive Tricone-style grill work. The upper bout has been modified for easier access to the higher frets. The El Trovador guitar features a large, 4" deep body constructed of mahogany. The body is bound in multi-layer celluloid, with a matching purfling border around the coverplate. A wood soundwell houses the resonator. An ebony fretboard is mated to a solid mahogany neck, capped with a rosewood headstock overlay. Both of these guitars are available for SoundPure’s Try-Before-You-Buy Program, so if you want to hear how they sound with your gear, shoot us an email at Acoustics@SoundPure.com, or call us anytime at 919.682.5552.
