National El Trovador

Regular price € 4.899

(incl. 21 % VAT)

Its Spanish name translates as “The Troubador,” and this wood-body single-cone National has been popular with musicians ever since its debut in 1932.


This reissue was designed in collaboration with the famous blues and swing guitarist Mike Dowling. Like the original, National's El Trovador has a large, four-inch deep body made of mahogany; a wood known for its sonic properties.


The body is bound in multi-layer ivoroid, with a matching purfling around the classic cover plate. An ebony fingerboard is paired with the solid mahogany neck, which is covered by an ebony headstock.


With its rich, deep, warm tone, the El Trovador is one of National's most popular guitars among troubadors everywhere.


The guitar comes with TFOA passport in a hardshell case.
