Description
The Epiphone Dobro Hound Dog Deluxe Round Neck in Vintage Brown is a great fit for players looking to explore resonator tone without stepping too far from a traditional acoustic feel. It's especially suited for blues, folk, and slide guitar styles, with a build and sound that call back to classic resonator designs, but with the added flexibility of onboard electronics for live or studio use.
This model features a figured maple ply body with full binding, a spider bridge with an ebony-capped maple base, and a proprietary Dobro cone that gives it a full, punchy sound with excellent projection. The Fishman resonator pickup adds a layer of modern functionality, letting you plug in without losing the natural tone of the cone. It's a smart blend of tradition and utility, making it just as ready for the stage as it is for sitting on your front porch.
The round neck mahogany design and rosewood fingerboard make it comfortable to play in standard fretting positions, especially for those who don't want to commit to a square-neck slide-only build. With solid Grover tuners and a 12-inch fingerboard radius, the playability holds up across the neck. We trust this one to deliver the authentic resonator experience with the added reliability needed for today's players.
