NCG Steel River Resonator

Dirty old river blues for when the mood takes you. I grew up close to the Tees in sight of the blast furnace at British Steel.

The Steel River Resonator is designed and handmade in our Lace Market workshop. The guitar has a quality Beard resonator cone and the body is made from reclaimed pine with a distressed nitro’ finish. The guitar demonstrates good acoustic volume and is suitable for slide guitar or regular playing, plugged or unplugged.

Guitars can be inspected and purchased at our shop, Nottingham City Guitars. Payment is by bank transfer. Cash or card purchases can also be used in-store. Guitars are also listed and available to buy on Reverb. However, the purchase price may be higher than in-store listings.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Guitars are designed for our own NCG Bridges, licensed by Mastery Bridge. Mastery Bridge & vibrato systems are also available to fit, as an option. Other bridges can also be considered.
Bigsbys or Mastery OMV can also be ordered separately for fitting in our workshop. Additional cost includes fitting and setup. We recommend a Bigsby B5 for flat top guitars. The NCG Moneymaker cannot currently be fitted with a vibrato.

Some models include a fitted Hiscox hard case or the case is offered separately.

We will fit customer-supplied pickups.

Guitars are setup & ship with D’addario EXL 110 10 – 46. The Drifter is strung with EXL 115 11 – 49. We will setup and string to your requirements on request.
