Long Neck Reso-Tone with Resonator - delete edit

From giweb on 9/19/2014 5:52:23 PM

Can't resist a bargain Reso-Tone Long Neck! Got another bargain and was surprised it had a resonator! A beautiful reddish resonator with two ivory bindings with center mounting screw like my 22 fret Reso-Tone. The resonator added a beautiful tone to this long neck and kept the flaking chrome plating off my clothes! The resonator is held by an alloy J-hook with male threads and the same female threaded flat head screw through the resonator. I had never seen a resonator on a long neck before. It added to the pot diameter quite a bit.

Fortunately, I had also just bought a "yard sale" long neck case from Bernunzios. It turned out to be a Lifton case for a 13 inch pot long neck! How fortunate can one person get. The case was too big for my beloved PS-5, but perfect for the new Reso-Tone!

There is some irony here? Not, so?

MP3: What Would The Prophets Say? Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The religious basis of authority in the Middle East (or anywhere for that matter) is the source of a lot of suffering and is unsustainable. The violence is mostly perpetrated on women and children.
MP3: You'll Never Leave Texas Alive Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A sad murder ballad of a sort. Some murderers wear nice clothes and use pens and paper to kill and never see their victims.
MP3: Ten Years On Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A lament, written for the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Sadly there are still parents who are irresponsible or foolish, and parents who suffer as a result.
MP3: Shutdown The System Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The pursuit of money is alienating, enervating, and exhausting. Here’s a song of resistance to finance capitalism.
MP3: Take The Wheel Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A song about mentorship, inspired by my mentor and HIS mentors too, that takes the form of the story of a ship’s mate being “shown the ropes”. The old sea captain may also have been a long-neck player
