6 BEST Resonator Guitars under $799 • Acoustic Tuesday 155

Do you want to get into resonator guitars, but are not sure where to start? In this episode of Acoustic Tuesday, I’ll show you the 6 best resonator guitars to start with, why they’re worth the money, and the 3-step system you should use to buy your next resonator.

Every resonator guitar on this list is under $799, very accessible to new resonator players, and well worth the money. But to help you narrow it down, we’ll also talk about the three qualities to look for in any resonator guitar.

I want to make a special shoutout to Mike Dowling, who is an incredible resonator player that I’m featuring in this episode! Be sure to check out his work and support him if you enjoy his music! Special thanks are also due to Normans Rare Guitars!

As always, you can catch Acoustic Tuesday at 10 am every Tuesday.
