The Miniolian - From Republic Guitars.. Sound sample! #2

There's many out there interested in the new models from Republic Guitars..

So just for fun, here's a short "simple sound sample" of the model "Miniolian" the wood bodied parlor sized reso-guitar..

It has a GREAT sound, less bass and volume than it's bigger bodied brothers in the reso-family, but the sustain is amazing and the neck and body size is very, very nice!!!!

More clips featuring the Republic Miniolian to come..

(Never mind my playing here though, this is a clip from a lesson in beginners slide guitar that I teach..
Simple, clean, plain and moderate...)

Just to let people hear the guitar, tuned to open G here..
:)

Hey Mike!

This is open G and the song is just a jam.. Don't know if this riff is a song, I'm just goofin' around!

They do have an all-metal parlor-size guitar. It is called the Resolian. I have not heard one, though.

They have lots of info on their web page.

[videovac]

does it have nylon or steel strings?

I hope they do an all metal version!
