Overview

Punchy, full-range spider bridge resonator sound with great projection.

The Deco Phonic Model 37 Squareneck left-handed acoustic-electric resonator from Paul Beard reflects the stylings of the Art Deco period in which the resonator guitar was originally developed. Applying innovative modern construction techniques to create a vintage vibe and sound is what gives this instrument its instant appeal. Crafted at the Beard Mastershop in Maryland.

Includes hardshell case.

"The word 'Deco' conjures images of a time when design was at its peak. A period in architectural history unmatched by any other that put forth such remarkable images as the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, or the Hollywood Bowl - astonishing icons that still bring marvel and integrity. The resonator guitar was born during this time and echoed art deco elements. Paul Beard's newest line of resonator guitars honors that tradition in appearance and tonal quality. Beneath the historic exterior lie Paul's own structural advances. By representing the original sound with the advantage of stability, it's only right that these guitars should bear the name 'Deco'." - Grammy Award-winner Jerry Douglas
