Incredibly informative; very helpful: thank you!
would of liked to hear what each sound like doing the same tune…..
What about a single humbucker resonator? Any specific overdrive/fuzz pedals u suggest ?
Justin Johnson comes through again with another killah guitar analysis video. I appreciate you, my brother. Keep doing your thing.
Good stuff right here. What tuning do you use?
I got an old Oscarshmit,,l love it , the head got cracked/ broken… dam I need to fix..
Hello Mr Justin… I was wondering what your opinion is on the acoustic/electric Dirty 30's mini bucker…Resonator by Recording King?… I enjoy the sound but I was wondering what your take on it would be as you def have more time in on the strings than I do…and I value your expertise….love everything you do on the resonator guitars!!…. bought the gamechangeraudio light pedal after I heard how you used it..I love that whisper sound!!!….thank you in advance for whatever tips you can give me on that guitar…
Great video Justin ! Thank you
Love resos. You're an outstanding player brother
awesome video, thank you Justin!
Fantastic educational lesson!!
Brass ,,hence brass bands etc instruments of all metals brass has the most resonating of all great video sir blue
thank you for the video. Your opinion and advice are very valuable to me. Please could you tell wich kind and caliper of strings are the best for each guitar? or at least the single cone biscuit bridge brass body one. Thanks
I sooooo want to start making these…
I love the metal resonator more than the wood one but I like both
That’s a good idea ???????? mine is making a double string resonator with strings in the hollow part fixed like a piano with the regular strings strung all the way end to end like the one Kieth erban said his friend had till the airport security guard cut the strings inside because they were permanently strung in side well how bout we Americanize it by making the permanent strings in side well on two floating bridges that we can screw off with the strings still attached so we can rescrew the two floating bridges to the inside of the hour glass body shape before the outside strings get strung on to play it make both yours and mine and play them both
Im a beginner and im jumping between either using my pinky or ring for the slide.
Just what I needed Justin. Thanks
The wooden resonator body had a much warmer sound and the brass had a much brighter sound
Saw Mark Knopfler play the Resonator guitar with Dire Straits on ‘The Brothers In Arms Tour’-it has a sound all of its own.So melodic and haunting sounding.You were making that Resonator sing Justin.
What tuning is this? Open D min?
Someone should try and make a CARBON FIBER RESONATOR with the tri-cone and make it look like a TRANSFORMER like Optimus Prime ????
