Regal Resophonic
Just took delivery of my new Regal reso squareneck yesterday - nice piece. Does anyone know where they are manufactured? It reads "Regal San Francisco" on the headstock, but that doesn't mean anything.

Walter - If you have trouble with posting photos you can email some directly to me at dbrooker@dbrooker.com and I'll post them for you - In the meantime if you do a search for "how to post photos" several of the members have posted step by step instructions several times on the forum - Hope this helps - DB

Drag the pic onto your desktop from your photo library. It will show up on your desktop as something like a "Hurl" or IM00, or jpeg, with a number after. The last pic I loaded here was titled IM001302. I make a note of the number so it's easy to find later in the process.
Go to "Post a reply"
Click on "Upload picture"
A window will appear titled "The Steel Guitar Forum::Upload picture"
In the middle of that window you will see ""Select file" click that
Another window will open that lists whatever is on your desk top
Scroll down until you find your pictures title, in my case, it was IM001302.
Click twice on that title, and the desktop list will close and you'll be back to the "upload picture" window, but your pic file number will be where it said "Choose File" before
Wait a couple of minutes, cuz it takes a while to load, then Click "Send" in that window
The "Upload Picture" window will change. Your pic will be on it.
Click on "Insert picture" and you're done.
Before I click the "Submit" button under my posting, I click the "Preview" button just to make sure it's okay. This may sound complicated, but it's not! And once you do it once, you'll never have a problem again. The only snag I've ever had was trying to upload a pic that was just too durn big. Like 1640 by 1220, which I don't know how to adjust on a pc, or on a Mac for that matter! But you can do that in your photo application.

Walter,
I believe that's a recent model RD-65. Those are pretty good guitars from the little time I have had to play on one.

Walter - I said I'd go $50.00 and I'll keep my word and I'll even take both of them for $100.00 even, keep in mind you're paying the shipping - Where do I send the check - DBJohn Billings wrote:DB, it only cost $32 back in 1935! You sure ya wanna go that high for a used guitar? 1935 Dobro M-32. But I do have a Regal-made Dobro from '37.

Regal Resofhonics
I have 3 all tuned differently (open G, C6th, E13). I reconed 2 with Quartermans. Like erv wrote, 'good bang for the buck'.
