I’d like to take the resonator plunge and play some finger style blues. My heart says National El Trovador but my wallet says Gretsch Alligator. Unfortunately I have NO local shops with both to play side by side.

Any advice? Is the tone of the National worth saving up for a year? Or are they close enough that I should get the Gretsch now?

I guess I can throw in the option of saving up for a few months for Gold Tone as well.

Thanks in advance
