Yeah, a Harmony made faux-bro for sure. Cool guitars!

I'm going for a 'melofonic'. Maybe back in the day in Australia, there were about two 'resonators', and that was one of them? TT

Just a brand name put on Harmony made fake reso's. They could have a number of names put there by dealers that ordered enough of any guitar model.

That cover plate really got around. In my saved photos I have pictures of a "Belltone" that actually had a paper loudspeaker cone installed as a cheapie resonator, and a square neck "Radio Tone" built by or for Schireson Brothers in Los Angeles that was fitted with their bowl shaped aluminum resonator and tall saddle. As I recall I bought a couple of stinkers on ebay; one with silver cloth glued to the guitar top and one with the paper cone before I scored a true Schireson. All used that same cover plate.
The Nick Cave guitar looks as though it may have had the Schireson resonator, but it is hard to say for sure.
