Resonator Style (Basswood)

(2 customer reviews)

$899.00 inc. GST

Our Resonator Style guitar building course will show you how to construct this iconic guitar model.  Under the stunning chrome cover plate is a spider bridge and aluminium cone, which gives this instrument its unique sound.  Apart from the amazing chrome hardware, this model boasts Abalone style fret markers, black/white/black/white binding, Maple neck and Poplar laminate fretboard.  Please be aware, as this is essentially an acoustic instrument with a lot of metal parts, a great deal of patience will be required to set it up correctly!

*Please select the Saturday of the Weekend you would like to do the course.

Custom Vinyl Decal

You can personalise your custom guitar by having a name emblazoned on the headstock. We can create a black vinyl decal in a range of fonts, so you can really personalise your instrument. Please note, we cannot copy any brand names, add symbols, logos or reproduce other fonts other than the ones shown below. Please check your typing as the decal will be as it is typed here. You can use all UPPER CAPS if you want (font 6 is shown in upper caps but can be in either). So please type it exactly how you want it to appear.

The more text you have, the smaller the font will be (15 characters or less is recommended). Decal is approx. 90mm long.

Pickup Upgrades

You can upgrade the pickups on your guitar with the following high quality Gotoh or Wilkinson pickups. The biggest improvement you can make to your guitar's sound is upgrading the pickups, and Gotoh and Wilkinson pickups are highly regarded, top quality products.

    The two-day course was great fun, and the setting of Nick’s workshop and studio is spectacular…the best Australian bush setting you can imagine.
    The resonator “Dobro” style guitar has a great sound that is very smooth and yet with a bit of that slide honky tonk that Jerry Douglas would like to have. I up-graded with a Seymour Duncan mini-humbucker, and it is superb.
    If you’re looking to build a resonator-style guitar, look no further, and sign up with Wildwood. It’s a bargain, and at no extra cost, you also get the bragging rights of being able to say you built your very own Dobro-esque.

    Lucky to be the first constructor and reviewer of the resonator, Nick was great to work with as this guitar is a bit fiddly and we worked through a couple of refinements, i learnt a lot about setting up guitars as well as building my own with the resonator

    Great 2 days, workshop well organised and equipped, there are no shortcuts here with Nick ensuring you build a top quality product and very happy with the results

    From the few friends i have shown a couple already talking about booking a spot
