Not a Resonator Guitar

Alan Brookes · From: Brummy living in Southern California

Can anyone identify this guitar? I bought it on eBay about five years ago. It's nickel-plated brass, and quite heavy. It has a good action and a good tone, and it's a work of art. The engraved designs on it are entirely Hawaiian, so I'm assuming it was made to play rhythm in an Hawaiian band.

I remember seeing lots of these on eBay. This particular guitar seems to have a different bridge and tuners than I remember.
