2007 Beard Guitars Retro-Phonic - Resophonic Round Neck Electric Acoustic Guitar

The Beard Retro-Phonic Resonator guitar is from the premiere custom line at Paul Beard's shop. Simply put, this guitar rocks. The all-Mahogany body wraps around the famous Beard Spider Cone design that screams and wails like nobody's business. This one is outfitted with both a P-90 and a Fishman Resonator pickup so you can move between more electric and acoustic sounds or mix both. The Red finish, Lightning bolt soundholes and Curly Maple bindings from head to toe dress this one in style so you'll look as good as you sound.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"What a hoot! Steve and I had a blast passing this guitar back and forth. I'm a slide player and this one feels great and has that wonderful midrange twang that spider cones are known for. It also plays very well for straight fingerstyle. It's full of style and the dual pickups make it very versatile as well. " - Paul Heumiller

"This guitar is incredibly responsive when plugged in. I like putting the blend knob right between the magnetic pickup and the Fishman for the best tone and volume before feedback. The retro look is very cool too." - Al Petteway
