This is a beautiful Dobro brand instrument in excellent condition with engraving on the front and back, not an immitation. Round neck low action fretable dobro. Barcus Berry bridge pickup installed after purchase. Serial number 2167 94B. I am the original owner and this guitar has only been used in the studio. Factory hard shell case included. Make me an offer.

I'd be guessin' that the end digits in the Ser# "94B" is giving us a clue....

Yes after doing some research it is an OMI made Dobro produced in their last year prior to sale to Gibson. It is a 1994 model

I had one of those, may have been a '94 too. Wound up trading it to a friend for a BMW mota-cycle in pieces.... a good deal for us both !

I played it lap style with a raised nut and can tell you, that thang shhhuuure came alive with the strings up high when you dug in deep with metal finger picks !

Honkin' Good Fun !

Come on gentlemen, make me an offer. This guitar is in need of love and someone who can play it.
