When you look at the famous Style “O,” you can almost hear the sweet song of the Hawaiian breeze through the swaying palm trees, syncopated with the gentle rolling of the waves on the sandy shore as the sun sets in the distance.
The smaller 12-fret body provides versatility and gives you that iconic resonator tone. The sound of the Style “O” has a wide harmonic range, making it perfect for solo performances and creating rich, layered tones. This characteristic is often appreciated by musicians looking to experiment with different playing techniques and styles.
The Replicon starts life as a normal Style O and then the aging process is applied. National created the Replicon variation, which has a subtly distressed finish that softens the bling, giving it the look and feel of a model from the 1930s!
The maple neck has a traditional sunburst finish. An ivoroid-bound ebony fingerboard and vintage-style engraved tuning pegs complete the look of this enduring classic. Comes in a hardshell case with a TFOA passport.
