Not that I am aware of. I don’t know much about them. If we have a member who has a newer National and wishes to chime in..

Lots of modern resonators sound great. Mine is a 2023 and I really like it, but is is not a National.

Oh so you didn't mean to be snarky about my post? There nothing wrong with my 2019 National NRP Tri Cone and I thought others might like to see it even if you don't.

I had to go back and see what in the world happened here…I meant ALL the nationals are breathtaking. That’s what I meant by “see below”. I wasn’t comparing yours to anyone else’s. I’m very glad you shared your National. It’s a beautiful instrument. Nothing but good vibes here, man. I apologize for the confusion.

Hi

I’m sorry I have no demos of me playing the Fiddle Edge but there are a number of other people playing/demo-ing them on YouTube.

I’ve played 2 MM resonators and they were both great.

Here’s one demo: https://youtu.be/9473U2Y_hHY?feature=shared

Hope that is helpful to you!

Best wishes

Slim

My Republic Woody Tricone. It is a pretty good guitar but I think I need to jump into a National at some point. An Estralita or M2 would be very cool.

I like it!

I’m also looking at Nationals and hope to acquire one sometime this year. I sure am enjoying the RK for now, though.
