MORE →Today we’re looking at one of the seminal resophonic guitars, a National Style 0 in ‘Etched Silver’ finish dating to around 1930. The Resophonic design dates to 1927 as a successful effort in increasing volume. While tri-cone models were the first, the single cone Style 0 offered more volume and lower production costs, though the harmonic content is not as rich as the tri-cone. In general, single cone models provide a sharp attack and quick decay, somewhat like a banjo, while tri-cones deliver a smoother rise and more sustain.

Here we are looking at a Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray Classic 4 string bass with an ash body finished in gloss black, and clear gloss finish maple neck. As with most modern professional grade basses, this has a full 34 inch scale length. Nut width is a comfortable 1.7 inch and the weight overall is just under 9.5 pounds.
This bass is in great condition with just a few small scuffs, and is well set up. The original hard shell case is included.

It sports a double-bound version of what is now the ‘330’ style body and the early FireGlo sunburst shaded finish. Toaster-top vintage style pickups, trapeze tailpiece and Rickenbacker’s unique compact headstock, this is as close as most can get to that 60’s tone.
