Too bad you just missed a gorgeous MyaMoe.
I sold three high quality tenor resonators recently. A Russ Morin, a Mya-Moe and a John Morton. You might also look into a Beltona, Phillips, or Donmo.
The key to a good sounding reso is the cone. Many high quality luthiers make their own cones. The rest use National cones.

Have you thought of Australian maker Greg Beeton? He's not cheap but Bob Brozman played a Beeton uke in his instructional DVDs and has praised them. Web site seems a bit unloved but I assume he's still making them.

Hi Trevor - did you find your tenor resonator? If not, I have a Pohaku spider bridge tenor resonator made by Peter Hurney that I am willing to let go. PM me with your email and I'll send you the details and some photos.

I know this is like crazy for me to be asking on a post so long ago but did you ever get that beeton? I would love to see and hear it. I occasionally look up all the metal body uke luthiers and saw this post.
