The sound of the Dobro is immediately recognized worldwide, evoking the spirit of American country, blues, and bluegrass music. So if you're looking to brush up on your Grand Ole Opry tunes, learn some old school blues chops, or are a contemporary musician looking for something altogether new -- then the Hound Dog Deluxe Roundneck is a great way to start acquainting yourself with the sound and feel of an authentic resonator guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eTrue To The Original\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Dobro owes its unique sound to the inverted single-cone resonator\/spider bridge design that was first pioneered in the 1920s by Slovak-American instrument designer John Dopyera. The distinctive twangy sound emanates from sound holes in the nickel-plated metal fan screen. The other essential ingredient in the Hound Dog Deluxe comes from its maple plywood body, reproduced faithfully here and staying true to the design of the original 1920s instruments. Epiphone has gone above and beyond with this instrument, adding a gorgeous, highly figured top that will make any player proud to play it under the stage lights. The original Dobro was sometimes referred to as \"the hobo's guitar.\" It's pretty unlikely that anyone will refer to your gorgeous Hound Dog Deluxe Roundneck like that.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eTrue To Form And Size\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e The 25-inch scale mahogany neck is set with a pearl dot inlaid pau ferro fingerboard that looks and feels great under your fingers. The strings run over the spider bridge, with an ebony saddle set on top of a maple base. The Tusq nut measures 1.75-inches. The strings lock in place with high-quality Grover tuners, ensuring that this Dobro will stay in tune for even the most furious fingerpicker. The full, warm tone of the Hound Dog Deluxe Roundneck is enhanced and projected through a distinctive nickel cone and fan cover plate, with round, screened sound holes and traditionally shaped f-holes.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eGet Electrified\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Hound Dog Deluxe Roundneck is great when you're sitting on your porch or around the campfire with friends -- but it really begs to be plugged in. It's got a custom-designed Fishman resonator pickup onboard ensuring a great sound when you want to run it into an amp or DI. The pickups were specifically designed to provide a smooth tonal response that reinforces your true acoustic tone.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eNew Possibilities From An Old Classic\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e Owing to its humble roots, the Dobro was once defined as instrument exclusively for folk and blues musicians. Today though, contemporary players like Jerry Douglas and Mike Auldridge have found new and exiting possibilities for its unique sound. The Epiphone Dobro Hound Dog Deluxe is ready to play the classics -- but it's likely you'll find something new and beautiful in this classic instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRichly figured maple ply top\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e 25-inch scale mahogany neck\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Custom-designed Fishman resonator pickup\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e 19 frets\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Pearl Dot inlay in 12-inch radius fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Nickel-plated fan cover piece\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Spider bridge with ebony-capped maple base\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Nickel-plated tailpiece\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e 3.5 inches deep\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Peghead Dobro decal inlay\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Tusq Nut\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Neck jointed at the 12th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Grover tuning keys\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e  Single Action truss rod\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Species: Figured Maple Ply\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Binding: Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Depth: 3.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Peghead Inlay: Dobro Decal\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Nut: Tusq\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Nut Width: 1.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Species: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Neck Joint: 12th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Truss Rod: Single Action\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Truss Rod Cover: Gibson Bell Shaped\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Scale Length: 25\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Frets: 19\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Fingerboard Species: Pau ferro\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Inlays: Pearl Dots\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Binding: Unbound\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Radius: 12\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Tuning Keys: Grover\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Sound Holes: Round with Screens\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Resonator: Dobro Cone\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Cover Plate: Nickel Plated Fan\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Bridge: Spider with Ebony Capped Maple Base\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Tailpiece: Nickel Plated\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e Pickup: Fishman\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cli\u003e Dimensions and Weight in Packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Shipping Weight: 9.75 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Shipping Dimensions: 41 x 19 x 6 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e    Manufacturer: Epiphone\u003cbr\u003eModel: DWHOUNDLX\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I246032-N-0-WHXC\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 711106316826\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Musictoner Musictoner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Musictoner has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
