The National Tricone is patterned after the original
instrument made in 1927 with its functional Art Deco industrial design.
It is made of brass, highly polished and plated with either bright nickel
plating or a custom Antique Brass treatment! The round, mahogany
neck has an ivoroid bound ebony fingerboard. The headstock has the National
logo inlayed in mother-of-pearl and vintage-style tuners!
To create the Style 1.5 Tricone, a touch of elegance
is added to the Style 1, with hand-engraved double-cut lines encasing a
wiggle stroke around the front, side, and back edges of the nickel-plated
brass body! |
