Hi Chris,

I have played a few Lebeda Dobros. They are very good guitars. I am not sure which models I have played, but they are all pretty good. I think they are quite similar to Beard guitars.

I have a Czech-built Dobro, it is a Holoubek. Built by Ondre Holoubek, it is a very good Dobro. I guess it is a copy of a Scheerhorn. I was turned on to them by various US Dobro players that visited that part of the world and were knocked out by Holoubek's work. One turned up in the LRC back in 2002 so I had it!

Shine On
Michael.

Chris,
the one you are looking at on the Bay is a bargain, the Dave King pick up is worth it on it,s own!
They had a pair of simular ones in the old reso centre and I still wish I had bought one. I would buy it myself but I have to reign in this close to Crimbo and have more than enough unplayed instruments.
Buy it then sell it to Colin!
regards
Lee

I've played the basic one and thought it was great. They stand up well against some much more expensive instruments.

I own a Lebeda basic roundneck and it sounds great and plays very well. Nicely finished with a wide and thick neck and flat fretboard. Perfect for slide. Bought this guitar from Palm Guitars in Amsterdam.

Hey Chris -I was literally registering on ebay to buy the thing when you got it (presuming it was you who did).
A good buy - I'm sure you'll have experienced that by now!
If you ever want to part with it......
