Thanks for convinced me into replacing the cones in my tricone. The more I play it the better it gets. The cones must be seating better or something?

That is very interesting. I wonder why they didn't go with four cones, it would be more balanced for the bridge. It's still pretty neat inside there.

Because a triangle is always stable.
Beside, bass need more energy, hence two cones.
(maybe these are *not* the reasons... this is all I can think of)

Jean-Paul,
From what I know you are correct, I think they actually had a patent and made a quad cone before they decided on the tri cone. I don't know for sure. Someone else might chime in???
But it seems that most guitars could benefit from a stronger bass side generally speaking.
Thanks!!
I am glad you all like the pictures, I know it was a mystery to me till I opened one up.

You guys are on the right track. For a bass frequency to propagate correctly, it requires more surface area to move the required amount of air based on the long frequency of the wave.
Layman's terms? A set of good house speakers has 15" woofers and two inch tweeters, yet sounds balanced. To properly convey lows, there's no substitute for cubic inches, baby!!!

It is closer to being all metal than any other resonator. Even has a metal neck!! It does have some wood at the head stock end of the neck and also inside the body are a few pieces of wood.
Here is a link I came across.....
