Gold Tone Paul E. Beard Signature Roundneck Resonator - CHN

Up for grabs is a beautifully maintained Gold Tone Paul E. Beard Signature roundneck resonator, finished in classic sunburst gloss, and fitted with a premium National pickup — making it ready for stage or studio. It comes complete with its original hard shell case and is in near-new condition with only minimal signs of use.

Gold Tone has earned a solid reputation for delivering high-quality acoustic and folk instruments at accessible prices, and their collaboration with Paul E. Beard — a modern master of resonator design — has resulted in some of the best production-model dobros on the market. This roundneck version offers the warm, punchy tonal character of a dobro with the familiar feel of a traditional acoustic guitar, making it ideal for slide, fingerpicking, or flatpicking.

The maple top and mahogany back and sides give it a rich, open sound with excellent projection and midrange focus. The USA-made Beard cone and spider bridge deliver crisp attack and that unmistakable dobro growl, while the National pickup adds versatility and allows it to be plugged in without sacrificing tonal integrity — perfect for live performance or recording.

The closed-gear tuners ensure rock-solid stability, and the factory setup is clean, smooth, and highly playable. This is a superb instrument for players who want authentic resonator tone in a familiar roundneck format, with the added bonus of professional-grade electronics and a near-mint appearance.
