Top: Arts: Music: Instruments: Stringed: Guitar: Resonator

Guitars which use an internal metal "loudspeaker" to amplify the sound instead of the normal wooden "box with a soundhole". The sound box may be wood or metal, or a combination of the two. The two best known styles of this instrument are Dobro and National.

They are frequently played using metal or glass slides.
