[harshaw61]

My 1938 National Resonator was among the instruments stolen from my band in Venice, CA on Sunday. Please keep an eye out! Serial #: C2435. Photos and details here: theamericansmusic.com/stolen/stolen-from-the-americans.htm

Your help is much appreciated.

Hi Harshaw 61. There sure are some bad uns about.

I don't know if you are on FaceBook, but there are a couple of pages dedicated to Nationals and Slide Guitars. You might want to post details on FaceBook. If you do not have an account, with your permission I can post on your behalf.

Kind regards and good luck

Hi Harshaw61

Ouch! .....I am sorry to hear that all your band's instruments were stolen. I hope you get the Style 0 and other instruments back. I know that our community will do what they can to help.

MM Forum members and visitors....

Please look out for this National Style 0 (variation 8) >Serial #: C2435

I was unable to link the photos of the actual guitar to this post, but I have posted an illustration by Mark Makin of the same model (Thanks to Mark Makin / 'Palm Trees, Senoritas & Rocket Ships')

These are quite unusual and with the large 'spade head' headstock, they are easy to spot.





Best wishes,

Shine On
Michael
