Description
National's T1 (referred to today as a Style 1 Triolian) has remained an enduring and tremendously popular model in the company's lineup essentially since its inception, and not without good reason. Simply put, there's nothing else quite like it - all other manufacturers can do is imitate and hope for the best. This one, from 2015, boasts a huge, bright voice that roars when you put a pick to it, but doesn't lose any of its thunder when fingerpicked, either. Likewise, while the T1 may be the most visually understated instrument in the Triolian lineup, it's still nothing short of beautiful, with the company's trademark nickel chrome finish and the striking coverplate design that has remained the instrument's calling card since its invention in 1927.
This instrument arrived in our store with very little in the way of playing wear and an excellent set up that fits a wide range of playing styles. A very small amount of chips and dings are present on the otherwise pristine back and are the only thing that separate it from a new Triolian. We consider it to be in excellent condition. Included in the price is the original hard-shell case.
