....nice playing on that...my first reaction is to say your playing will sound great on any National...I have owned three of them and became pretty well acquainted with my buddies Style O....of the three I owned..a steel single cone Delphi Deluxe was my fave and I actually prefer the punchier raw sound of steel over the more compressed refined tone of a brass Style O....a steel tricone retains some of rawness of a single cone but tempers the punch with crazy sustain...killer for more open playing styles...a brass tricone is a Cadillac...the smoothest ride in town...wood bodies....I had a custom walnut Estralita....is as one would expect woodier sounding and less brash than a metal body....

...if I was you I would be looking at an NRP steel single cone or maybe have a look at their new Raw series...good value there...
