The Robert Dunbar is a 'red hot' blues machine. It has a 2-piece alder body with a bound, book-matched flamed maple top. Its quarter-sawn rock maple neck, with pao ferro, 12" radius fingerboard, and highly polished super-jumbo Dunlop frets, makes it ideal for string bending. The wide, thin neck has a very low string action and has been built for speed.

The 3 DiMarzio single-coil pickups deliver a variety of warm, sweet vintage tones, which enhance the overall quality of this great instrument. This one is a real knock-out and is a joy to play.
