Fine idea - interesting also that it appears to have the most minimal break angle.

is that unusual, a round cover on a tricone! I guess you couldn't call it a triplate!

In my opinion the builder is not knowledgeable enough about National-style instruments. It has saucepan lid non-spiral cones and an ebony capped bridge.

Putting three cones under a single cone coverplate was done on a few instruments in the 1920s by the National company. The Dobro coverplate over a Tricone system was also done by OMI Dobro, I think it was in the early 70s. So the concept is not a new one.

Don Morrison Au. makes triplate triolians/duolians with a biscuit cover over a t-bar (http://www.donmo.com/Guitarsite/Donmo_Home.html). Could sound like this: littlebrotherblues.com/Gear/SoundTest1/DonmoRelic-openG-glass-slide.mp3He also makes a replacement coverplate for tricones, with a biscuit type palmrest, that you can snap off for easier access for works on the saddle... Also Beard have a custom sq neck where you can change between spider/biscui/triplate set up. Cheers |
