National Delphi Resonator Resophonic Guitar Taupe 1998 w/ OHSC

Used, in very good playing condition. This 1998 National Delphi has all the resophonic charm these guitars are known for and then some! This is one of our favorite Nationals that has come through the shop so far –– with rich, full and punchy tones, comfortable playability, top-notch build quality, and a beautiful grey / taupe powder coat finish, this guitar is really something special.

It's in great shape for being nearly 25 years old with some normal cosmetic signs of play and a very minor crack on the top of the neck heel that's purely cosmetic and stable. Freshly set up in our shop and playing like a dream. Ships in a nice arched hardshell case.

Action measurements: Bass 7/64", Treble 8/64"

More info from a previous listing:

The National Delphi features steel body construction with a ribbed sieve-hole coverplate, just like the pre-war original resonator guitars. In the 20's and 30's thousands of musicians discovered the punch and power of the original Nationals. The Delphi captures the classic sound and style of the originals, with the quality and features that modern players require.

The tone is a more refined version of it's thin gauge steel brothers, with a ringing tone and plenty of lush overtones. Jump jazz chords sound right at home on the Delphi, while still retaining that famous steel bite that Nationals are famous for.
