Any resonator lover has to be excited about Mule. The fact that the market makes such a venture worthwhile is such a shock to those of us who have lusted after Nationals since the 1970's. Really shows that Don Young was right. The Cheap imports really did help the American maker market.

Lovin these pics! Did anybody notice in the video of the hubcap build, it looked like an upright bass leaning against the wall, whats the story on that?

Strange old pic Fogrider.

Those two , and their pristine "work clothes" look like very unconvincing lumberjacks. Neither do the guitars appear to have had any use.

Or am I missing something ? Are these fellahs a well known duo and I am the only one here who never heard of them before ?

Between this thread and the telecaster thread in the electric section I'm starting to get all twitterpated...

Ahhh you guys suck! I just told my wife that my recent guitar purchase was going to be it for a while. Now I want a resonator as my slide guitar, sigh.

OK fellow resonator players, how do you keep the fingerprints off?

Some nice resonators, folks. I'd love to come across a Mule; they look interesting.

Found a fully strung photo:

I've seen one of these washing machine, hubcap, car bumper, heating radiator grate (did I leave anything out?) guitars at Cowtown in Las Vegas; they're bizarre in that cool kinda' way! Speaking of cool. I always liked the plectrum over and under strings thing! I know lots of folks don't, but it reminds me of a boyfriend a zillion years ago.
