Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 Metalbody (Round Neck): Classic resonator guitar from the one and only Dobro®.
Epiphone presents the new Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 Metalbody guitar with an easy-to-play round neck. The Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 resonator guitar features the famous style and sound of an American original that has been dazzling and inspiring musicians since the late 1920s.
There are a few guitars that can cross generational lines and attract instant attention from players everywhere, no matter what style of music they play. In the world of electric guitars, everyone wants a Les Paul. And in the world of acoustic guitars, every player wants a great metal-body resonator guitar.
The Dobro® Company, like Epiphone, is one of the most revered names in the history of American guitar manufacturing. And the new Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 Metalbody, brought to you by Epiphone, is the perfect instrument for players who want the beautiful articulation of a metal guitar for blues, fingerpicking, jazz or even light slide for classic Delta or Hawaiian styles.
Classic resonator body: The body of the Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 is made of Bell Brass with nickel plating with a 14 1/8" lower bout width, a 10 3/8" upper bout width and a depth of 3 ½". The tone of the Hound Dog M-14 is rich and full-bodied with a fast decay that makes both finger picking and sliding smooth and easy in all registers.
The mahogany neck has a natural satin finish with a 1960s-style SlimTaper neck that is easy to snap on and is connected to the body at the 14th fret with Neck-Stick Construction. The rosewood fingerboard features pearl dot inlays with 19 medium frets, a 12" radius and a bone nut.
Dual Action Trust Rod: The first generation of original Dobro® instruments look great but often suffer from crooked necks or poor intonation. The modern new Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 eliminates all the old problems thanks to a dual-action adjustable truss rod and bone nut, making it easy to set up the Hound Dog M-14 for any style. The strings sit on a Hard Maple saddle with an ebony cap. The headstock has a rounded "Dobro" shape seen on rare (and expensive) vintage models. The Dobro® Hound Dog M-14 Metalbody also features a vintage-style 4-color "Dobro" decal with the iconic harp logo.
Grover® mini-Rotomatic machine heads: Tuning the M-14 is made smooth and intuitive with Grover® mini-Rotomatic machine heads with an 18:1 ratio. And the Hound Dog M-14 comes ready to play with D'Addario EJ42 medium gauge strings.
