Do dog dish resonators really work or do they just look cool?

Do you put a cone under the dog dish?

I've been thinking of building one for a long time but I really wanted to know what to expect from the finished product.

Is it about style or sound or both?

I'm building one now, but no cone, I think that would be a bit complicated for me.  I'm hoping there's some resonance from the bowl and the lid of the box itself.  I won't know how it sounds until I finish though.

Expect it too sound more like a banjo. Here's a tune done with a 3 string with only the dog dish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6ASp4y1fls  Its has a piezo built into the saddle.

And here's the same guitar being played https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ov6xJS2cmoc
