Absolutely beautiful!  I've been out of touch (guitars, and no doubt other things) for a couple years and didn't realize they were making anything like that. 

Congratulations!!

Really Great photo!   I love the shadow lines across the guitar. How did you get that effect?  I have played this one and can tell you it sounds as great as it looks, likely better.

Now that I have my FIII, the only gas I'm having now is for a National.  That hog Tricone sure is nice.

You've never seen it because its just now being released at NAMM. This one got out prior to NAMM. Yes, its a M1 Tricone from Natiopnal Resophonic.  I got it a few days ago.

Thanks for the compliment about the photo. Shot in window light filtered through the mini-blinds. The background was just clutter from my shop so I photoshopped it out and painted it purple.

It does sound great though. I spent a few minutes comparing it to the Vintage Steel Tricone last night. The M1 is fat. Got more mids and a warmer bottom. The Steel seemed more nasal. I'd like to find somebody around here who plays these well so I can sit and listen to them from out front.

yes, I was thinking that the M1 and the F3 Hogtop will make a nice tandem....

Okay, that is cool.  Noticed the model in the NAMM photos.  Have never owned a resonator.  That makes me want to change that.
