fromVa,
Nice looking but way out of intonation! The bridge isn't the best. Wish I had saved up for a more expensive model.

Look up "Rich Men North of Richmond" on YT for the viral hit from Oliver. He used this guitar in most, if not all, of his songs. Thinking of buying one just for that reason.
Great Value

If I could make changes to the guitar I would have a larger nut width (1-7/8"), longer body length, and deeper body. Those specs describe a National El Trovador (except the El Trovado has a 1-3/4" nut like the Alligator). Most National single cone, biscuit bridge guitars have the wider nut but shallower body. Most have a longer body length. But since a National resonator costs about 7X more, I'm very happy with the Alligator.
