Zeldzame National Resophonic cutaway 1998

Sinds Corona heb ik mezelf op pensioen gezet wat betreft openbare optredens.
Dit prachtige en zeldzame instrument brengt nu voornamelijk de dagen door in een donkere kast.
Ze wordt gaarne gered van dit lot......

The National Reso-Phonic RadioTone Bendaway was one of the early models offered by National Reso-Phonic guitar and is one of the hidden gems in the National Reso-Phonic lineup. The RadioTone Bendaway doesn’t appear on the National Guitars website but is available through dealers.
I was thrilled when National Reso-Phonic reissued this model in 2012, as the tone of the Bendaway model is unique in the National lineup.
The National Radio-Tone Bendaway uses the same cone and string length but something special is going on with this model.
The National RadioTone Bendaway has audibly more harmonic complexity in the trebles and the bass is tighter and more defined — almost like a metal body style O for note separation but with a warm and woody tone.
My guess is that the unique internal displacement of the cutaway and the Art Deco sound holes does something to enhance the overtones.
