I just got a beautiful new National Style O yesterday. What a fantastic guitar. SHINEY!!! :cool:
I haven't had a National for 4 years now, my last was a late '20's 12 fret Duolian, and I am very impressed with the quality of workmanship in this new model. I'll post some photos and a sound clip later today.
I also picked up one of the Peterson virtual strobe tuners. Nice piece of gear.

I'll take a better picture later in the day. This is a hard guitar to photograph and I think I'll get better results shotting it outside in the sun.

I'll definitely be doing some recording with it in the next couple of days. I can't do it now because my wife and stepson are sleeping on the other side of the house and this is a LOUD guitar;).
I'm doing my first gig with it today. I'm playing a benefit concert today with a blues band and they're going to give me a 20 minute slot to do my solo National thing before our band's set. I'll try and get someone to take some pictures.
