National Reso-Phonic Style 1 Tricone Resonator Guitar

The National Style 1 Tricone Resonator Guitar revives the legendary voice and aesthetics of the original 1920s design by the Dopyera brothers. Its polished brass body, nickel-plated to a mirror finish, offers not just eye-catching appeal but also delivers the unmistakable tonal character of early Tricone resonators—warm, rich, and full of harmonic depth. Designed for players who demand both visual beauty and sonic excellence, this instrument stands as a true heir to the National legacy.

The mahogany neck, finished in a lustrous mahogany burst, is paired with an ivoroid-bound ebony fingerboard that offers exceptional playability and elegance. Vintage-style tuners, a slotted headstock, and the iconic National Shield decal round out the classic appointments. Whether you're playing slide, fingerstyle, or open tunings, the Style 1 Tricone delivers unmatched sustain, projection, and tonal complexity. Protected in a deluxe National hardshell case, this is a guitar that’s as timeless in tone as it is in design.
