Here we go again, in reduced quality to fit  

I just happened to end up buying this devine little mid 70s Dobro in wonderful condition on the dreaded eBay so I had to record something with it! The nice thing is it doesn't sound like your average clangy Dobro, a much, much more mellow sound 

[Coyote Slim]

Yeah it does have a nice tone.

OK but not a patch on your triplate. Nice playing though, good driving rhythm.

[Parlor Picker]

Very good, Richard.  Your performance keeps on getting stronger and stronger.

I always thought that Dobros were generally more mellow than Nationals, especially the single cone jobs, which can sound a bit "dustbinny" (hide your eyes Marshcat). Whatever, it must be nice having the different instruments, offering different tones.

Thanks.

Yes, I know it's not in the same league as the tin one, but for a Dobro it sounds nice 

[Parlor Picker]

Do you realise if the word "Dobro" is mentioned more that three times in a thread, Marshcat will start spitting feathers, enter a kind of delirious state and mumble semi-coherently about "biscuits and metal" (and he doesn't mean Ginger Nuts and Black Sabbath)...

"for a Dobro it sounds nice"

So??

1st the b***o nonsense from you and now this. It's time you got off that island and back to civilisation - stir crazy!
