The Steel Guitar Forum

I have a Beard Road-O-Phonic. It is sort of a combination lap steel and a resophonic. It has two pickups on it, one on the cone plus a magnetic pickup. It has a stereo jack and you can either run a stereo cord to an amp or they supply a "splitter" cord so you can use two separate on channels on your amp.
This way you can blend the signals from the guitar to get the sound you are desiring. I have an acoustic Marshall amp that accepts a stereo cord and I can blend the signals via two separate amp channels.

Alan. That's a very true observation and I use pedals about 50% of the time I use my Bo-Bro. It gives you that Ped-A-Bro sound that Paul Franklin and Mike Johnson have laid down on many a hit record. But, also using no pedals (which is what most players recommended when the simulators first started appearing on the market) and playing as you would an acoustic Dobro, is a very effective (no pun intended ) playing technique and is the sound that most apt to fool others that you are playing an acoustic instrument. Being creatures of habit though, we are always tempted to stomp on all those expensive pedals and knee levers that we paid so much for.

This little babie helps !!!
