Tricone Metal Resonator Guitar - 'Relic' Nickel Effect Body

Looking like it's been lying undiscovered in a damp barn since the 1930s this brass bodied tricone resonator is distinguished by it's 'relic' nickel effect finish. The wide mahogany neck (48mm at the nut) has a bound rosewood fretboard with 12 frets to the body, a  vintage style slotted headstock fitted with 1930s  style tuning machines.
