National Tricone Squareneck 1930s

A classic of pre-war American ingenuity, this 1930s National Tricone squareneck delivers the unmistakable shimmer and complexity that made these instruments legendary. Built for lap-style playing, its hollow metal body and triple-cone resonator system produce a rich, layered tone with exceptional sustain, clarity, and harmonic depth—equally suited for early Hawaiian music, blues, and old-time styles. The squareneck design ensures stability and precision when played with a steel, while the aged nickel or German silver finish (often beautifully patinated after decades) adds both visual character and vintage authenticity. These early Tricones remain some of the most refined and sonically balanced resonators ever made, prized for their responsiveness, projection, and unmistakable voice.
