Cool link for all Resonator guitar fans

[sliding-tom]

Here's a very cool site for anybody who's into National guitars (Be prepared to have a fresh set of pants ready!):

:kreig

Nationals (http://www.notecannons.com)

NICE!! I'll drink to that... :-)

I've had that great site bookmarked for a while now, great old photos and history!

Here's another site to check out, cool pics of old resos and new Nats--and even some restoration pics and new Nat Factory Tours:

NatTour (http://vintagenationals.com/)

Cool site, sinner, although I think I've seen it before - thanks for reminding me, I pretty much forgot about it. I enjoyed the factory tours and restoration pics.
Here's another one in case you don't have it:

National Info Page (http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/1375/national.html)

Oh yeah, that provide.net site has a lot of essential info on most makers and models.

BTW--did you check out all that old dust that gets built up inside the old Nats? Some old bluesman might have even lost some other goodies in there and the new owner a half century later could find some cool history!

That ol' dust is already building up in my tricone although I'm keeping it in its case whenever I'm not playing. Since Mr. Brozman and also National Resophonic advises you to never take off all strings at once and always keep some pressure on the cone(s) there's hardly any way to remove it properly. When I asked them about it they told me to use a vacuum cleaner or compressed air. :hmm
