National Dynamic Question

Asa Brosius · Posted 22 Sep 2008 7:47 am

I believe I've seen Dynamics with at least two tone/volume dial configurations- a model with both on the far side of the pickup, and one with a dial on either side. Could someone help me nail down the production years for the model with both dials on one side?

Thanks,

Asa

The model with tone and volume pots on opposite sides was produced just prior to ww2. After the war they were both on the treble side.

I think they were the last one made??? There are dynamics with the volume and tone on the same side, look at Rick's Dynamic in the above link I think his is a 1957!!

Thanks Jim, Richard. Michael-thanks for the advice- I find a quick question on this particular forum is often more expedient than an hour of research.

Asa,
I was wrong about the knob configurations. They were on opposite sides until about 1956.
Michael Lee,
Gruhn's Guide indicates the Dynamic was introduced by 1942.
