Originally owned by Reece Anderson, this one is a beauty! Maple neck, Ebony fretboard, "frets" are inlaid, Spruce top. The guitar is numbered RGD0071 on the label inside signed by Carroll. I do love and enjoy this instrument, but find what little time I have for resophonic is taken up by 6 string these days. There is a pickup inside the instrument, I have used it with a small pre-amp, but mostly have used a microphone for amplification and recording. The instrument is in very good condition, some pick marks and small dings. The only imperfection that I can find is a small crack in the spruce top that runs from the edge of the lower bout up under the cover plate. It does not affect the structural integrity of the instrument, and certainly does not affect the tone, and is so small it will not show in a photograph. Comes with a hard shell case, the tone, response and balance in this instrument are incredible. Priced at $2,250 firm, and that includes FedEx Ground shipping to US postal codes. I would consider a trade of a six string of equal value. Thanks for looking, please email me with any questions, or call my cell, (208) 867-5062.
