For sale is a rare and soulful 1935 National Duolian resonator guitar. This steel-bodied instrument is a phenomenal piece of American music history, delivering the unmistakable metallic bark and incredible projection that defined early blues and slide music.
Driven by its single-cone "biscuit" resonator design and classic rolled f-holes, this Duolian delivers a powerful, punchy, and highly focused acoustic tone with exceptional volume. Whether you are playing traditional bottleneck slide or fingerstyle blues, it offers a raw, authentic voice that modern reproductions simply cannot replicate.
Our in-house luthier has fully inspected this instrument. It is fully functional, structurally sound, and ready for the stage or studio. It shows cosmetic wear, finish scratching, and character consistent with a 90-year-old vintage instrument. Please review the photos for exact cosmetic condition.
