The History and Artistry of National Resonator Instruments (Book) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bob's book gives a great insight into who actually researched, tested, and invented the instruments, where and how they were manufactured and sold, and who played them (blues, jazz, and Hawaiian musicians) the sound and music is terrific.What is really amazing is the craftsmanship of the old world engravers, I would love to own an original Tricone IV or Single Cone IV.This book introduced me to a new side of acoustic music I was not aware of, the readers of this book would do well to purchase Tone Poems III, Vintage Slide and Resonator Instruments played by three gifted musicians, David Grisman, Mike Auldridge, the Bob Brozman, the author of this book.
