It sounds A LOT like a tenor resonator making love to a hofner beatle bass - It's sound is very compact and punchy - all delta blues. You can play it HARD and not get too loud for the living room. It gets a little flatulent in the blues box but you can use it to your advantage. Stringing it up actually lead to a harmonica duel with a 2 year old in which I was roundly trounced. Played acoustic with harmonica and came up with the rhythm part for a new tune. Did not do the dishes though and got some stink eye for it. But I didn't buy that regal I wanted - I'm in a bidding war on an electric that my wife is getting me for X-mass if I can get it and I couldn't sneak it through considering the tele she got me two years ago hasn't left the case since arriving with a shewed fret and I keep telling her I'm downsizing. Should have done the dishes.
LOL!!! Dishes are over rated. :)
Cool. glad to hear the post got you inspired to dig the old girl out!!
