National (2010) Triolian Polychrome (Yellow)
By popular demand, National Reso-Phonic has recently introduced the Triolian Polychrome.
Each instrument has been carefully hand painted to match the look of the original Polychrome Triolians of the early 1930’s, including the detailed palm tree design on the back. The thin-gauge steel body is constructed with flat cut “f” holes, a formed back, and traditional non-ribbed coverplate. The maple neck, complete with maple fretboard, clears 12 frets to the body and features ivoroid binding and traditional engraved tuners.

National Resophonic (2009) NRP 12-fret

Pederson Guitars (2010) RavenWolf Resophonic (Multi-Color Custom Stain)
This particular resonator guitar is called RavenWolf, designed and constructed in collaboration with Paula Darmofal. The surface is wood burned and colored with stain and paints. The binding is polished aluminum to match the custom aluminum cover plate and sound holes. It features, as do all of Pederson guitars an adjustable bridge. It is one of a kind.
Pederson resonator guitars eliminate the well that connects the top to the back. I “hang” the cone from a braced top so as to achieve a crossover sound of a dobro and flat top guitar with a powerful balanced tone and exceptional sustain. The necks are carved and profiled to your specifications, including classical and flamenco set ups for nylon. This is truly a remarkable guitar for those not familiar with the range of tonal possibilities with resonator guitars.
