Legendary Dobro / Reso effect plus functions as a Matchbox ( buffer w/ tone control) when dobro effect is off. Minor scratches, but excellent working condition.
Hey, it must be good- it was designed by Buddy Emmons!
$250 shipped to lower 48.

Do these have a true bypass or any bypass?

Don't believe so , Bob- it's always on, either as the buffer or the dobro sim.

There was not bypass until
the Match Bro II came out.

But version II was only a dobro sim, it doesn't have the Matchbox circuit or tone and timbre controls.

fixed dobro sound? No adjusting?

I guess they need a III model that does it all? Smile

Bob, this version already has all that. Tone control adjusts the matchbox, timbre control adjusts the dobro sound.

No Todd, no bar. Used to have one and found it didn't make that much of a difference other than cutting down on sustain. You can compensate tone wise by using the timbre control.
I think Scotty's Music still has the bars for sale.

I don't see any pot for the tone control when in bypass. The one I have (an original model) has a pot on the bottom for the tone when in bypass.

Jack, the tone control works the matchbox when the dobro mode is off.

Is your Goodrich Match-Bro (1) still available?

I’ve got some great Pedals that you might be interested in having if you want to trade instead of selling, however I’ll still Purchase it Too!
Respectfully,
Jeffery in Oh.

This post is 10 years old. I really doubt he has it. You might try the wanting to buy section.
