That collection has been for sale for some time now, and some even think that
Gibson, who now "own" (they think) the word "Dobro", should also own that
collection of instruments.
I've check out the Hawaiian guitar that Jim mentioned, thru photos, and I love
the idea of the little compartment up near the tuners, to hold your fingerpicks,
etc.
The Dopyera Brothers left the world a better place for their having been here!
(Louder "twangs" can only be a good thing.......)
