The guitar pictured is the actual guitar you will receive!
At The Farm, we take actual pictures of each instrument and make sure they are fully set-up and ready to play before we ship them. Each instrument goes through a multi-point inspection, followed by a set-up process by our in-house tech staff. We then photograph each instrument with high-quality equipment in our on-site photography studio. We know that details like wood grain and color finishes can vary, so we want you to be able to see, to the best of our ability, exactly what you will be receiving.
This process takes over an hour for each instrument - from inspection to pictures. We care about the instrument we put into your hands! Rest assured your guitar was not just plucked off of a shelf and drop-shipped to you from a warehouse without care.

This Hot Rod steel square neck resonator tri-cone guitar offers a bold, rootsy tone perfect for slide and lap-style playing. Built with a fully metal body and a tri-resonator construction, this square neck model is a serious tool for blues, bluegrass, and Americana players seeking that unmistakable growl and bite only a metal-bodied resonator can deliver.
The nickel plated steel body features a traditional single-cone biscuit-style resonator design that projects with cutting power and sustain. The square neck allows for comfortable lap-style playing with a slide or tone bar, and is preferred by dobro and lap steel players for its wide string spacing and flat fingerboard profile.
This model combines vintage looks with modern reliability - with an etched coverplate, and slotted headstock, it's got all the charm of a Depression-era blues box, but with rock-solid intonation and playability.
Whether you're playing solo bottleneck blues or cutting through a full band mix, the Hot Rod steel resonator delivers a commanding voice and vintage flair that turns heads and captures ears.
This is a used guitar and does show minor signs of handling, but has been fully tested and is in excellent working condition. Please review our photos carefully to see the true condition of this guitar.
