Sounds good acoustically. Be interesting to hear the amped version.

Might be more authentic sounding with 8 or even 6 strings more in the range of typical resonators or tuned down as suggested.

Good to see these available.

You probably know this, but Pedabro was a name used by Mr. Paul Franklin for those that he built. Might be a good idea to use a different name ID to avoid confusion.

Many ways to string up and tune a guitar. Makes a lot of difference in the sound too. It is a Pedal Dobro or pedal resonator guitar or Ped A Bro for short. Ped A Bro is not trade marked so I do not see a big problem with it. And I do not think Paul Franklin is worried about it.

Very well. Should be no worries then. I imagine there are several players interested in these.

I hope the interest is good on these. I have 3 more in the works at the shop. Hope to finish them up in 5 or 6 weeks.

There is a used one at the Fayetteville, AR Guitar Center. Walked in the other day and that’s the first thing I saw. Very Nice.

That is a simple console model with no pedals.

Very nice ! One question : Why is the C pedal rod Â«Â on the other sideÂ Â» ? Thanks.
