Gibson Original Acoustic Instruments Enhances Legendary Line Of Resonator Guitars With The Hound Dog 60

Gibson Guitar's Original Acoustic Instrument Division has created the Hound Dog 60 resonator guitar that combines the traditional look and sound of Dobro's classic Model 60 with the affordability of the popular Hound Dog model.

The Hound Dog 60's appointments are highlighted by a neck with 12 frets clear of the body, available with a square neck and high nut for bluegrass slide-style playing or with a round neck for standard play. It also features two traditional screen-covered round soundholes to enhance clarity and projection. The body is beautifully made of laminated figured maple veneer with original style spider bridge and nickel-plated 10 ¸-inch resonator. It comes with a gig bag at an MSRP of $1,249.

Gibson Original Acoustic Instruments, the bluegrass division of Gibson Guitar Corp., leads the industry in producing fine Dobros, mandolins and banjos, include the industry-standard F-5 mandolin and Mastertone banjos. Located at the Gibson Showcase in Nashville since 1999, the OAI facility features a retail store and performance venue in addition to manufacturing.
