I had to replace my tricone because, unlike wooden guitars, the tricone do not sound better with age. They were 80 yrs old and began to rattle. I still have them though. Is that a reissue? If not it is mint. Thanks
No I don't think he converted it because I have a 1930's national tricone that looks just like it. Beautifully played my frind. Makes me want to learn how to play mine better. Btw did that etching come stock? Thanks
great song. I'm guessing you converted that from round neck to square, because the tuners are facing down instead of up like most squarencks. If you did convert, it's a great idea, that tricone has an awesome sustain
Hello, sorry for my intromission. Great guitar, great sound!!!
I'm now selling an original 1929 National tricone style 1 on ebay, if you or someone you know is interested. Ridiculous starting price, no reserve. See: National tricone style 1 nachoga
You can see a clip on youtube. Put "nachoga" or "national tricone nachoga".
my lord, this is so beautiful that it brought a tear to my eye and gave me goose bumps, thanky you for putting this on, it almost sounds like wont back down by tom petty, simply amazing
Fantastic song and playing! I've watched it maybe a hundred times already. This video has single handedly convinced me to begin learning slide guitar. Yesterday I went to McCabe's guitar shop here in Los Angeles to meet the teacher and look at their tricones. Thanks for the inspiration!
i mean, because of the shape, you must play only in open tuning on your legs and you cannot play in classic tuning classics songs and classic chords...
if i buy one, i choose a rounded neck for playing both styles because it's really expensive.
How long have you been playing? I would love to be able to play by ear (been working on it for about 4 years now on my Beard dobro). Very nice arrangement! I'll have to try and learn it now. Thanks for sharing.
Nice rig chief, supreme tone and tune. Listened to it 9x and I GOT to go to bed now. I'd love a tricone, but I have enough to do with roundnecks. Got 2 nationals, 3rd will be ordered around Dec. Can't have enough. Slide on chief, you got it.
Meraviglioso!

Can you help me? I want to start playing on dobro, and I want to ask you, how type of guitar is this? Is like dobro but it´s resofonic guitar ye?
lookys 4 years ago
anything else, beautiful song, really nice =)
lookys 4 years ago
It's a type of resonator guitar called a tricone (it has 3 small cones; a dobro has one large cone).
Tricones are metal body and have a softer initial tone but long sustain.
Tricones have long been used in Hawaiian and blues. Dobros are often used in bluegrass. Hope this helps.

absolutely beautiful. I want one.
