A Wonderful Replica Slide Guitar

Posted on | | No Comments

A resonator is an acoustic guitar that makes the music by means of metal resonators. Most acoustic guitars produce the sound from their wooden body. Before electricity was commonplace, if a guitar player wanted his instrument to shine above the other instruments in a band, he played a resonator guitar. After the development of the electric guitar, the resonator guitar kept it’s place as a unique sounding instrument with a voice of its own.
This video shows a very happy buyer of a resonator guitar showing off his prize. His comment:
“. . . What a great guitar I found on Ebay. Only $100 plus $20 for shipping. Most Asian built resonators are made from inferior materials with poor craftsmanship. This Fullerton Winslow guitar is not as good as a $1500 National, but if you are interested in learning Bottleneck, this guitar is great. A nice replica of a Regal 1930 catalog guitar.”
