All sorted, thanks to all: First Resonator £400 budget

[laverdasf750]

Hi

Wondering if anyone has a resonator for sale...it would by my first. I did briefly own an NRP International but only for days before having to sell it on. Having just moved an acoustic on I have a budget of £400, based in South West London. I play (badly) Travis picking/Mississipi John Hurt and looking for that enigmatic Reso sound.

Thanks for looking.

Hello!
The MM Lightning on Ebay has had its price knocked down to £450, that's a good price.

Laverdasf a MM Blues 28 - I think there was one for sale recently.  I have one with 13-56s Newtone Reso strings (changed 3rd string to steel) tuned to E and it’s very playable. Worth looking at a new one from Michael as well (but it’s up from £400).
Ive been trying out John Lee Hooker’s Boom Boom (didn’t like it on my acoustic but it’s getting there on the Blues28).
good hunting

PS I have a MM Lightening and it’s a bang tidy guitar (I wouldn’t sell mine)
