Dobro
I was in upper New York State last week and checked out some guitar stores.
At a couple of them I noticed the Dobro Hound Dog Square neck selling for about $xxx. Why so low ?-because they were made in China. No markings inside the guitar could be seen through the F holes and only a small removable Made in China sticker on the back of the neck. Sounded great and worth the $xxx - but is this what Gibson has done with the Dobro name? Last edited by cotten; 08-07-2007 at 06:28 AM. Reason: AGF Rule 2: no guitar price discussion.

Gibson Dobros go for quite a bit more than that.
Was it a pre-Gibson? Or a copy? |

Current MF ad shows them at about four times that amount

I've only seen round neck Hound Dogs. Didn't know they made a square neck.

If you like the tone and you like the guitar don't worry about the price being cheap - Notice this guitar comes with a gig bag ... a case could cost half as much as the guitar - Now that's an interesting perspective
