Dobro

The Dobro is a brand name, now used generically, for a type of resonator guitar that uses a metal cone inside the body to amplify sound acoustically, producing a distinctive twangy, metallic tone. It is typically played horizontally on the lap with a slide and fingerpicks, and is closely associated with bluegrass, country, and blues music. Musicians and hobbyists enjoy it for its warm, sliding sound and its important role in American roots music traditions.
