Beard's "Belle" is quite the lovely beast. From the all-solid-mahogany E body's rounded edges and unique cone design to the interior reflective plate, this is the sound and feel of the modern dobro, evolved.

Building on the success of Paul Beard's luminary-studded Signature Series, the new Beard Belle incorporates many of our favorite features from the Josh Swift and Jerry Douglas guitars into one standalone model. Expect a powerful instrument that pushes a lot of air, with great bass punch, thick, singing single notes and wonderful sustain. Outfitted with a Fishman Nashville internal pickup for ease of use onstage.

For years on end, Beard has been producing some of the finest resonator guitars on the market, but with a handful of wonderful new models of late, the Belle among them, the team in Hagerstown, MD have hit a truly masterful stride.
