Sound Pure's Take

What a sound! It's that "swampy" tone y'all been dreamin' of. I love the feel, look, and easy-going nature of this guitar. By "easy-going", I mean, it's whatever you want it to be. Me, I like action I could balance a bat on, but we've set this bad boy up for shredders, too. One of my favorite moments with it was during our guitar summit. Two incredible jazz musicians launched into an impromptu version of "summertime" with the "Reso-Dude" carrying the melody. WOW! It cut through brilliantly, adding a ghostly metallic reverb that shook my spine like a dangling leaf. Call us and we'll hook you up with Rob, who will be glad to built one JUST FOR YOU!!! -Robinson@Soundpure.Com
