Dan Tyminski Band- The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn- Bluegrass First Class (Griffis Guitar)
Gaven graciously played one of my guitars that evening. It's a Rosewood/Spruce. This was kind of a dream come true to me...one of my instruments in the hands of a master playing backup to one of my favorite singers. Please excuse the yelping woman, unfortunately we were not allowed to.

This is played on a resonator guitar that has solid mahogany back, sides and neck and a koa top. I apologize for the bad audio. It's still a great rendition by a master musician.

      Thank you. It’s called a resonator guitar (sometimes called a dobro). They were invented to be louder than an acoustic guitar. There is an aluminum cone under that black cover plate that works sort of like a speaker. It’s an acoustic instrument, though. Here’s some more info en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonator_guitar

    thats the easiest and best sounding video ive watched on how to make that " constant sorrow sound "on a dobro , good job !!!! i think people get lost with all the over explaining frets and junk , the sound is there and watching you do it out right just makes it simple where even an ol shade tree picker can go at it , Thanks !!!

    Really cool, thanks for sharing. Cant believe it took 7 years for me to stumble into this. If I had shop space that nice I'd defo give an upgrade like that a go on my RD-51. But I think my eventual upgrade is going to just be whole new Beard or something similar, my black lightning sounds alright with fresh strings.
