I'm going shopping on Tuesday. I want a resonator so I'm off to the big smoke (well Birmingham) to try out a few different models. I like the look of the Asbury tricone (https://hobgoblin.com/ashbury-ar-49-tricone-guitar-brass-body) but I'll wait and see what sounds and feels right on the day.
Does anyone have any experience with resonators? Anything in particular I should be looking for?
I'll mainly be using it for open-G slide playing blues and country stuff. Ta!

Many years ago, well, around 1994 there was a decent sized guitar shop, I think called Guitar Exchange in Birmingham, I think the Jewellery Quarter. I don't suppose it's still around?

Nah it's gone. I bought my first first there in their excellent 2nd hand section! Epiphone LP Special 2.
There used to be several great guitar shops but almost all are gone now.
Fair deal music is ok, and guitar guitar. There's a tiny shop in the JQ that specialises in Japanese electrics.
