Brand: National Resophonic Guitars
Instrument Categories: Mandolins, SOLD
The National RM1 Maple Walnut Resophonic Mandolin is built in San Luis Opisbo California and features a teardrop, almost ‘A Style’ body shape, but with a single 9.5 inch resonator cone. The RM1 pairs a figured Maple top with Black Walnut for the sides and carved back; the neck is figured Maple with a bound Ebony fingerboard. Because it’s a reso-phonic instrument, the bridge is built into the center of the resonator cone. A National tailpiece is used, and gold -plated Gotoh tuners with black buttons are at the head. The nut is bone.
This National RM1 is in very good condition and playing order with very light wear. Fret wear is negligible. The walnut back and sides help provide a bit of warmth to the overall tone, and as a reso-phonic instrument, volume and projection are not a problem.
The original hard shell case is included.
