National Style 1 Tricone!Brand New
National Reso-Phonic Style 1 Tricone $2670 USD

~ Available for Immediate Delivery ~

SOLD!  Please do email me, or call (in the USA) 319-338-3614. Order any model currently in production, or contact me to see what might be immediately available. I'm happy to help you.  

The beautiful, classic Style 1 Tricone from National Reso-Phonic Guitars is now available for immediate delivery. This new 2007 model guitar is patterned after the original instrument made in 1927 with its functional Art Deco industrial design. It is made of brass, highly polished and bright nickel plated. The round, mahogany neck has an ivoroid bound ebony fingerboard. The slotted headstock has the National decal and three-on-a-plate vintage-style tuners.

The guitar pictured to the left has a square neck, but the one I have for sale is the standard, round neck model.

I love the tricone sound! The National tricone has the tone that National inventor John Dopyera described as, "flows like a river." Artists that have recorded and perform with the National Tricone include Tampa Red, Sol Hoopii, Bob Brozman, Paul Rishell,  myself and many others. It's full of rich harmonics and sustain that is especially rich for bottleneck slide, but is also a very versatile guitar. National Reso-Phonic Guitars are the very best, and you'll most likely have the shiniest, coolest guitar in town!

Guitar includes hard case, with no sales tax outside of Iowa.  Price of $2670 is a little bit more than 20% off of the list price of $3348.  UPS Ground shipping cost is additional; within the USA it's from $35-$70, depending on where you live.  Enquire about shipping outside of the US. I only charge the actual shipping price.  Feel free to call me at 319-338-3614 or email me anytime.

Also, you can have a Highlander Magnophonic Pickup added at the factory for $360 more. The list price is $450, so it's 20% off that, too. These pickups are hard to retrofit, so it's best to have them put on at the factory if you think you'd want one.

Highlanders are the very best, most natural-sounding pickups, and the Magnaphonic was developed especially for the tricone.  I have them in all of my tricones and love 'em.

Also, if you want a strap button added, that's $10 more
 
I don't often have guitars in stock; here's a chance to get a great deal on a classic National and have it delivered to you in a few days!  And, if you find a better price, I may be willing to match it.  Any questions, please do email me.
