RE: amplifying a national steel dobro guitar



New list member here, and first post---been looping live a couple nights a week since the first RC-20 came out; using an EDP since 2003.  I play solo blues (and some ersatz stuff), and work the rest of the week with a blues trio, no looping.

 

I have a brass-bodied resophonic guitar that has a Highlander pickup in it.  www.highlanderpickups.com   It comes with a preamp and a TRS cord.  It’s excellent, in my opinion, as the pickup is mounted in the biscuit and gets a very natural sound.

 

Brozman is quoted on their page along with other top resophonic players.  I appeared with Keb’ Mo’ last fall, and he mixed a humbucker-type on top with a Highlander inside, and had the best amplified steel National I’ve ever heard.

I'll offer up Schatten Design - http://www.schattendesign.com/.  Les is a good guy and done some work on my geetars.

He's got a b'zillion p/u's for any kind of stringed instrument (harp to ukulele); his resonator (i.e., dobro, national) p/u's are here: http://schattendesign.com/resonator.htm and his tri-cone p/u's are here: http://schattendesign.com/tricone.htm

talking about Brozman,he seems to just mic his
national guitar,but are there pickups outhere
specially designed for this guitars?ive tried a few of
them but the ones that come with humbuckers take away
the character of their sound.
