They had metal bodies and a tricone resonator system, with three aluminium cones joined by a T-shaped aluminium spider.Д«rother Rudolph Dopyera, who previously worked with Weissenborne, hand built the original tri-cone models with diamond holes, prior to the second production stamped metal bodies by engineer Adolph Rickenbacher. In 1927, National produced the first resonator instruments and sold them under their National brand.

He used that initial idea, but with a large spun conical inverted speaker to create his patented multiple resonator designs.Дopyera was assisted with his nephews Paul and Carl Barth spinning the first aluminum diaphragms on wooden bucks. The second company was formed by George Beauchamp, a vaudeville steel guitar player and house painter, and inventor John Dopyera, a violinist and luthier).Дopyera had seen an amplified Stroh stick violin nearby with a small flat diaphragm and long attached horn. 1930 National Triolian resonator mandolin
