Mike's Seven String dobro, built by Mark Thibeault of Rayco Resophonics, Smithers, British Columbia, Canada. This too is a prototype, and is currently one-of-a-kind. Mark used quilted maple and cocobolo binding for the guitar. The fretboard is ebony and the tuning keys are Waverly. The tuning is G7 (F G B D G B D).

Mike's Manzanita HR, built by Manfred Pietrzok, Rosdorf Germany. Mike calls it his crossbro because it's a cross between a dobro and a Weissenborn style guitar (like all Weissenborns, it has a hollow neck). Manfred decided upon German maple with letterwood binding for the crossbro. The fretboard is violetta. Mike's tunings for this guitar are E (E B E G# B E) and E minor (E B E G B E).





This is Mike's pre-Gibson maple bodied Dobro. The nut, bridge, cone, and tuning keys have been changed from the original, and are now ivory, ebony, Quarterman, and Waverly respectively. G (G B D G B D) and G minor (G B D G Bb D) are the tunings Mike uses on this guitar.
