RocketMan Help: Which Dobro? (11) RE: Help: Which Dobro? 02 Mar 02

All of the import models sound 100% better when set up properly with a new cone, spider, and bone nut. There are many respected resonator luthiers around who will perform the service for you. A couple that come to mind are Paul Beard and Tim Scheerhorn, but there are many others. I watched Tim Scheerhorn upgrade a Regal RD75 at a workshop in Nashville last month. The difference in volume, tone, and sustain was incredible! The cost for the upgrade is somewhere between $150 and $200 US. Sometimes the luthier can get a better price on the base instrument if he buys it and then does the upgrade.
