Thanks for the Information Ralf as Always.:encouragement:
Tony Policastro reviewed a Guild all solid (square-neck) resonator when he was working with Music Villa (possibly a R 37 s -if that's the name for solid- I seem to remember).
It did have a depth and power that made it really unique...Nothing comparable to laminated ones (from other makes including Gretsch and Gibson) I had heard...
(Price either had nothing much in common
this being said)

Very cool guitar, sure looks pristine, congrats! I don’t have any experience with resonators, but last year or so I caught Taj Mahal in concert and he played a resonator, and it was a unique sound and I dug it.
edit, now I realize this is an 8 year old post lol

But did @Bernie realize that? Perhaps there was an intention to post here? https://letstalkguild.com/ltg/index...ator-looking-to-purchase.217383/#post-2099806
Yes I did : I'd been reading the topic about Canje0621's search for a Guild RS 30 S resonator and my searches got me here, where Ralf didn't have his answer about sonic value of all solid woods vs laminates on resonators. (I could do myself with a Guild resonator if I'd find one, and if they were not so dear).
I couldn't copy the Tony's review's video URL though, for lack of the down hyphen on my computer's keyboard
www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9-WMhyphenaoSvM . Maybe someone would be nice enough to do it ?

Cool!
I've had my eye on a squareneck for a while.

Wow I want one bad!
Once again, folks, this is an 8-year-old post. txbumper hasn't been around for a while.
The New Hartford-based resonators are surely a rare breed. I don't think they made many, and some of them went to LTGers... I wonder if they still have them?
