Just noticed that a Goodrich super bro Dobro effect was snapped up immediately, i have never used one, and they seem to be pretty thin on the ground, would like to try one though, but about 6 years ago, i was selling a Dod Graphic eq pedal on ebay, and the winning bid came from Nottingham, and the winning bidder and myself made delivery arrangements, i noticed the name was dthurlby, so i asked, are you Derek Thurlby the steelie, and it was, and he told me he was buying the eq pedal, in order to get a dobro effect, by basically having a 7 band eq in an upside down 'V' shape, ie mids high, lows and highs backed right off, gives a pretty good dobro type sound, ive since tried it, and its pretty good in a band mix, not suggesting for one minute it is anywhere near a National or whatever, but it gives a steelie another option, soundwise, if anyone uses a multi fx type unit, maybe you could set a patch for dobro effect, by setting the eq with perhaps a very subtle hint of 'PHASE' in there, to try and imitate the Timbre of dobro, you might just find a nice sound in there, and it does make you use the bar more, cos you need to refrain from using the pedals and knee levers, to give a more authentic dobro type sound, give you something to do these cold winter nights, any one else out there already doing this? apart from Derek and now Me,
