If the guitar lists for $3700, $3000 isn't an incredable deal. These new dobros sell for less than retail. Just a thought. Brian

NO...These guitars SELL for 3700.00. 3k is a GREAT deal...

Then you won't have any trouble selling it.

I was informed when I purchased mine (now Chris Boyds and boy do I miss it!) that Paul Beard does not allow discounts on his guitars from any of his dealers, so the list price is the selling price..

David is correct....

It's an agreement we have with our dealers.

Thanks for the comments guys, This is an outstanding reso at a great price, no waiting to build. Hate to see it go but a Sho Bud Pro III is in the waiting!

I paid $3,000 for a "like new" model E last summer and have since noticed a few that sold for that amount. There are a lot of fine resophoics being built, some command more, some a bit less, I've only played one other Beard Model E, they seem to be consistant in tone and quality, and worth every bit of $3000.

Used Beard Maple or Mahogany E's consistently sell for $2800 - $3000 used. Downside risk buying one in that range is almost nil should you decide to sell later. I bought a used Maple E last year for $2600 (from a VERY motivated seller) and later sold it on Ebay for $2850. Wish I still had it, but bills had to be paid. I've never seen another E body for a price that low. This one is a solid buy.

They are right about the selling price for dealers.
These resos are the cream of the crop. Banjo killers!
