Hi y'all! This is my first post altho I've been a member and have been lurking for a couple of months. I really admire the helpful and knowledge sharing culture in this community. Although I'm new here, I've actually been playing blues for more than 20 years. I'm known in blues circles in the Philippines as "Delta Slim" (I used to play a lot of Delta-style bottleneck)
I already have a Johnson Style O resonator and am looking to get a cheap ($400 - $700?) Tricone? I know Johnson has a Style 1 but the Regal RC-51 looks like a good choice too. Does anyone have any experience comparing the two -- or with other, better Tricones? Are there any other make/models in this price range I should look at?
My other guitars are a 5-string banjo, a gitjo, a 12-string, and a OOO. I play various blues styles -- from Delta, Piedmont to ragtime and more recently old-timey and bluegrass with the banjo (still a newbie).
Thanks in advance for your help!
