Beard Vintage R Models capture the spirit and flavor of the classic resonator guitar of the 1930’s. The beautifully grained birch veneer top, back, sides and open soundwell body design combine to produce a growling powerful bass and clear bright treble sound, perfect for traditional playing styles. The gracefully hand-shaped mahogany neck with a solid peg-head (and precision tuning machines), produces a desirable balance between sustain and decay. Vintage birch & Cherry veneer top, back and side construction. “Open” soundwell body design. R- body, 25" scale, dot inlay with rosewood fretboard, chrome parts. Vintage sunburst satin finish. Includes hardshell case.
