This is the Holy Grail of vintage NATIONAL Tricone square neck guitars.

Extremely rare 1937 National ''Exploding Palm Tree '' Tricone Resonator Guitar with an all wooden square neck and a solid (as in ''non-slotted'') headstock.
The Palmtree engraved decoration on this 1937 National triple-cone Resonator makes it an ultra-rare example and a collector’s dream.
This guitar never showed up officially in any of the company’s literature nor advertising whatsoever, meaning that it has no official model name.
As a result, it has subsequently become known among enthusiasts as the ‘Exploding Palm Tree’ model due to its unique Hawaiian-influenced Palm Tree design.
 
Only a few of this particular model were made in 1937 and fewer are still in existence to this day.

It has a nickel plated brass body.

Condition is very good and all original.
Look at the photos as they are part of the item description.

A non-original hardshell case is included.

Sale is final.
No return. No refund.

The guitar is located in Montréal, QC, Canada.
Local pickup is available.

Will only ship fully insured to Canada and continental USA.
Buyer will pay for all shipping cost.
