The Johnson of mine just had a particularly good sounding brass body, but I hated the small neck with the small frets and sharp fret ends, so I had a new neck built for it. And I also put a National cone and biscuit in it. So no, I wouldn't recommend unless one you can bond with the smaller neck and you get one that is set up fairly well. What I would recommend is to learn to play slide guitar on one of your acoustics, if you feel it's something you're interested in, then go out and play a few resonators, (biscuit, tricone, spider), and see which one represents the tone you hear in your head.
