  • Hello my Friend, yes, just got it up and running. Really appreciate your great videos on the Pickin Parlor, especially Top of the World. I listened to it while I was washing dishes the other night, hope you send more over there. Thanks for the nice comments and best wishes to you

  • Hello Brother Zak, so you're Guitarded71, cool! I have a hard time finding a consistent difference in the maple vs. mahogany, but that said I do gravitate to duo's for whatever reason. Wonder if anyone ever did some sonic tests on that very effect?

    Yeah, that's esky's old blue Collegian. I had to undo the mushroom mod thing and reset the neck slightly to get the action right, but it's a very nice playing guitar now. Original cone too. I'll have more demo's soon, take care!

    Cheers, Lenny

  • Hi all, that's interesting you say that Capt. Farrell. Could be what guitarded says, as that's the only real difference. I need to listen closer to this one, thanks for commenting, glad you all enjoyed it. I have many more to come.

    Cheers, Lenny

see all

  • Do you ever do any Republic Resonator guitar shootouts?

  • your1932 steel body walnut, third guitar, to me has the sweetest sound. Very old in sound. As if you were speaking into your hands cupped over your mouth, very sweet

  • And for slide playing to.

  • Aha!!

    This was cool, I didn't know you had a channel here!!

    Drooling over all these guitars!!

  • It would make sense that the maple neck absorbs less high frequencies than the softer mahogany. Triolians seem a little more coherent in standard tuning to me, at least based on the guitars I've had or played.

    The videos are great Len, keep 'em coming! Is that the blue Collegian sitting on the right? You should put it in the next shootout.

  • national resonators are the best guitars

  • Maple neck (harder wood) vs mahogany probably has something to do with it...
