Description
The
Paul Beard Signature Series resonator guitars distinguish themselves
from the crowd by offering a traditional 12-fret design, ideal for the
best tone. The GRE was designed by the legendary Paul Beard with a
steel body and a biscuit-style cone configuration. The GRE combines
these traditional elements with a modern twist as it is constructed
around a thinner 2-1/8” body design for a more subtle acoustic tone that
really shines when amplified. The built-in magnetic lipstick pickup
does an excellent job of capturing the true resonator sound whether you
desire a crystal clean glassy tone or want to drive the signal for a
pushed blues rock sound. The volume and tone control allow for a
variety of available tones and this guitar will absolutely scream if you
want it to!
The
GRE was reviewed in Frets Magazine and was the recommended steel body
guitar to own in its price range. It is professionally setup at the
Gold Tone shop for optimum playability ideal for conventional playing or
bottleneck slide playing. The coverplate also features a removable
palm rest for quick and easy saddle adjustments.
While its thin brass body provides sweet acoustic tone, The GRE really
shines when plugged in. The magic made by its authentic "lipstick"
pickup enhances any playing style, from bottleneck blues to precision
fingerpicking.
