The Mule Resophonic Mavis Custom Resonator-Electric Guitar brings together the raw, metallic bite of a resonator and the versatility of an electric guitar in a distinctive, custom-built instrument. Its single-cone resonator design delivers the lively, focused response that makes resonator guitars so captivating, with a punchy midrange, crisp attack, and plenty of character for blues, roots, Americana, and slide playing. Figured custom wood gives the Mavis a one-of-a-kind visual identity, complemented by a natural matte finish that lets the material's individual grain take center stage. Whether you're digging into gritty rhythm parts, exploring expressive slide lines, or adding a little vintage-inspired edge to your sound, the Mule Resophonic Mavis Custom Resonator offers a voice that stands apart from the ordinary.
The custom figured-wood neck pairs with an ebony fingerboard to create a solid, responsive playing surface with a refined, understated feel. Its 25-inch scale and 1.78-inch nut width provide a comfortable balance of reach and string spacing, while the 20-inch fingerboard radius and light dot inlays keep the playing experience familiar and straightforward. Cream binding along the body and fingerboard adds a classic contrast to the natural wood, while the matte neck finish maintains a smooth, unpolished feel under your hand. Open-gear tuners and the distinctive Mule headplate inlay complete the instrument with details that celebrate its handcrafted character without distracting from its unique design.
At the heart of the Mule Resophonic Mavis Custom Resonator is a biscuit-style bridge and single-cone resonator setup, giving it the direct, lively response players look for in a resonator instrument. A Mule mini-humbucker adds another dimension, allowing you to bring its distinctive voice into an amplified setting while retaining the instrument's individual character. With its custom wood construction, cream accents, ebony fingerboard, and stripped-back styling, the Mavis feels equally at home in a roots-focused studio, onstage, or in the hands of a player searching for something genuinely different. For musicians who want the unmistakable personality of a resonator with the added flexibility of electric amplification, the Mule Resophonic Mavis Custom Resonator-Electric Guitar is an inspiring alternative to the usual six-string formula. Available now at Haggerty's Music.
