1992 National Jazz-Blues Wood Body Resonator Guitar

Overview: I do love modern, woodbody Nationals! They have a lot of the snap and upper-mids bite of the '30s guitars but with a cleaner palette, more volume, and much better handling. This Jazz-Blues model from '92 is early in the game for the renewed company and has an almost "textured satin" finish with a good-looking burst.

Repairs included: I reset the neck, leveled and dressed the frets, replaced the saddle with an adjustable one, and set it all up. It's playing spot-on and ready to serve. It's setup for fingerpicking/flatpicking but cab be adjusted for slide if desired.
