Details
The National Reso-Phonic Triolian is a single-cone steel body guitar with a 12-freft neck and all the mojo you could want. Like the Triolians from the early 1930s, it has flat-cut f-holes, a formed back, a traditional sieve-hole coverplate and a handpainted two-tone “walnut” brown-and-gold burst. It’s fitted with a maple neck with an adjustable truss rod and ivoroid-bound ebony fretboard. Steel body Nationals like this have a slightly sweeter, mellower tone than their brass body siblings like the Style O. The Triolian is very popular with guitarists who play bottleneck-style slide but musicians who play 1920s jazz, old-time country and jug band music find the guitar’s powerful sound hard to resist.
