Used Beard Vintage R with Electronics

With its laminate Finnish birch construction, Fishman electronics, and open soundwell, this Vintage R squareneck combines elements of classic American resonators with a touch of the more spacious tones from a modern squareneck design. The result is a dobro with the immediate, percussive midrange necessary to articulate all the intricacies of traditional bar techniques along with an added bit of lush sustain. This example has been played but remains in very good shape, with notable wear limited to a couple shallow finish scratches on the back bass-side bout and some edgewear around the body and the back of the neck.
