I bought it Nov/07 and then found a National Resolectric Jr so never played this one. When I got it the sound didn't seem right and I found out why.... the cone was screwed to the body and was touching the bottom of the recess. So I ordered a new Beard cone, bone nut, maple bridge and strings from Stew-Mac.......hollowed out the recess so there's clearance now and NO screws!!!.......opened up the 2 vent holes, rerouted the bridge pickup wire ( originally it went through a hole punched in the cone!!!), and recut the peg head so it doesn't look like Gumpy. I left the action a little high so there's room left if someone wanted it lower. Case included. asking $385.00

Now it plays and sounds as good as the National.
