GoldTone PBKG Square Neck Flat Top Guitar

Ron Yarboro · From: USA

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a Beard/Goldtone PBKG Square Neck (flat top) guitar sight unseen.

It seems as If this guitar isn't too popular which is surprising considering that there aren't many non-resonator and non-Weissenborn square neck alternatives under $1000. or over $1000. for that matter.

Since the posting of the thread below (click on the link below), I was wondering if any of the form members played, or purchased the GoldTone PBKG Square Neck Flat Top Guitar, and If so what do you think about It? Thanks.

I played one at the Beard shop last year and liked it a lot-- balanced & full sound, very appealing acoustic tone. Don't think you'd be disappointed.

Hi Stephan,
Thanks for your reply. I'm glad to hear to that you like It. I'm surprised I didn't get more responses, good or bad. The lack of responses makes me think that this guitar isn't looked upon favorably.

I live close to the Beard shop and have played the guitar in question. I also own an 40's Oahu and a Regal/Harmony 7 string as well as a custom Hauver acoustic lap steel. The build quality is excellent and the sound is rich and woody. It's not a Wiessenborne but if you want a good hawaiian box it's worth the money. I like the old birch guitars but finding one without issues is hard. Buy new and play long!

Hi Robert,
It's encouraging to hear that you and Stephan like the sound of the Goldtone PBK.
If I order It will be from the Beard shop because Mr. Beard said that they set up all their Beard/Goldtone guitars.

Thanks.
Ron
