Guitars used by C.W. Stoneking on King Hokum

Resonators

Dobro D33

Stoneking says, about his 1974 Dobro, on his website, "This is the guitar on the cover of the King Hokum album, it was my first resonator guitar purchased back in 1997. This guitar was Dobro’s answer to the metal bodied National guitars, it has a nickel-plated brass body and a biscuit style’ 10 1/2 inch resonator cone, this one had a cone made by National which I put in it and was a very loud guitar. I played this guitar alot in the 11 years I owned it – it was lost in New York City, left in the trunk of a Yellow Cab one night after a show."

Windsor Ideal Model 8 Tenor Banjo

"This is a very old (I think 1905) English made banjo from Birmingham, I bought this banjo back in 1993 from Balmain Market in Sydney, wrote all my banjo songs on it and used it on the King Hokum and Jungle Blues albums, unfortunately it was lost along with my Dobro in that famous NYC taxi cab shortly after the Jungle Blues album was recorded." - Source.
