I bought this guitar new in 2006. I've used it as my main road guitar for the last four years. There are numerous recordings of it on youtube from live performances with Dehlia Low, and you can also hear the studio sounds of it online. Here is the borrowed wording from Elderly music about this model's features:

"Premier squareneck resonator guitar features solid flame maple back, sides, neck & top, "E" body style ( wider & deeper, with arched back), dual screenholes, rich golden brown sunburst gloss finish, flame maple bound top, back, fretboard & peghead, ebony fretboard w/ modified slotted diamond inlay, solid peghead, "fan" coverplate, traditional tailpiece, chrome hardware, all powered by a top mounted spun Beard cone & spider bridge w/ hard maple inserts on a fully open body cavity, no soundwell, for a big, big sound. Includes wooden case."

The guitar is in excellent condition. It has a variety of dings and scratches from being used on the road, but it is a beautiful instrument, and the loudest dobro I've ever heard. Has a Schertler Basik Reso pickup installed. Comes with used TKL case.

$2600. At this price I can ship it to you. Thanks for looking.

Oh... My...

Too bad I'm saving up for a new downhill mountain bike...

That may be the best looking squareneck I've ever seen.

Chris Boyd:

It's plain to see that you have never played, or heard of the Jasper reso built by Floyd Jasper... Talk about AWESOME... I get 'on top' of *5 strings at bluegrass jams and festivals with mine...




* five string banjos.
