2023 Mule Modest Mavis Resophonic Thin-Body Electric Resonator Guitar
Faded Black Relic
With Original Tweed Hard Case
Offered here is a very cool and highly regarded 2023 Mule Modest Mavis Resophonic Thin-Body Electric Resonator Guitar in Faded Black Relic finish with the original hard shell case.
Built by Mule Resophonic Guitars in Saginaw, Michigan, the Modest Mavis has developed a strong following among players looking for authentic resonator tone and vibe in a comfortable, lightweight electric guitar format. The thin-body design makes it far more comfortable to play than many traditional resonators while still delivering the distinctive metallic growl, punch, and character that resonator enthusiasts love. Whether you're playing blues, roots, slide, Americana, folk, rock, or experimental music, this guitar has a unique voice that stands out in any collection.
The faded black relic finish gives the instrument an understated vintage aesthetic, while the brass resonator cover plate and hardware provide a striking visual contrast. At only 6 pounds 6 ounces, it is exceptionally comfortable for long playing sessions.
