Dobro Courses

 
Peghead Nation can get you started playing Dobro and keep you progressing in your quest to play like Jerry Douglas, Josh Graves, and other dobro greats. We have two excellent Dobro courses taught by Mike Witcher, who is one of the best lap-style resonator guitar players in the world, with gorgeous tone, dead-on intonation, and creative, tasteful musical ideas. See details on both of his courses below.
