The 1133 was a student model 3/4 size resonator guitar produced by National/Valco/SUpro from 1956-64. They had various color drum-shell coverings- white, red and green. The first versions had "National" on the peghead and a National bade on the bass side of the front, on the pickguard. Later models, like this, have no National bade or logo. That's why I think it's from the 50's

 It has a very simple set-up with the two neck screws- 1 for angle and one to attach the neck. I have this one set up to where I can play higher up the neck and yet still get a good slide action going. It even has some banjo-like quality to the sound and is pretty loud, especially if you use fingerpicks.

It is all original except for a new bridge. Comes with non-original case. Shipping to USA only. Thanks for looking.
