Thanks man, it's pretty much all german silver.. It was designed and built right before electric guitars were invented. They played in circus tents often during that era, and made them from metal to withstand tuning issues from the humidity. First made in 1927, John Dopyera was hired to design and build the loudest guitar possible. He came up with that guitar. National guitar company was born. Mine is a 1928..
Four years later, he left National, and started a company with his brother.. Dopyera brothers= Dobro
