Built around a nickel-plated brass body and an updated biscuit-style resonator assembly, the Hound Dog M-14 delivers the commanding projection, ringing sustain, and metallic character that have made resonator guitars essential to blues, bluegrass, country, and roots music. Its comfortable C-profile neck, bound rosewood fingerboard, and Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners combine traditional Dobro styling with modern playability, making it a versatile instrument for fingerpicking, flatpicking, and expressive slide techniques.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Hound Dog M-14's nickel-plated brass body provides the bright attack, rich harmonic complexity, and powerful acoustic projection associated with metal-body resonator guitars. Unlike a conventional wooden acoustic guitar, the M-14 uses a resonator cone to amplify string vibrations mechanically, producing a focused, articulate sound with substantial sustain. The updated resonator assembly features a newly designed coverplate and a biscuit-style bridge with a hard maple base and ebony cap. This construction contributes to the instrument's direct response and distinctive tonal character, allowing individual notes and slide passages to project with clarity and presence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe neck features a comfortable C profile designed to accommodate a variety of playing techniques. Its 14th-fret body joint provides convenient access to the upper register, making the M-14 suitable for conventional fretted playing as well as bottleneck slide work. A dual-action truss rod allows precise neck relief adjustments, helping players tailor the instrument's setup to their preferred playing style. Whether used for traditional blues fingerpicking, country rhythm parts, or open-tuned slide passages, the Hound Dog M-14 offers the versatility to move between different resonator guitar techniques.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe bound rosewood fingerboard features a 12\" radius, 19 frets, and pearloid dot position inlays. Its relatively flat playing surface provides a comfortable feel for chords, melodic lines, and slide techniques, while the 24.75\" scale length offers familiar string tension and responsiveness. The traditional Dobro Hound Dog headstock features the signature four-color harp logo, complemented by Grover Mini Rotomatic tuning machines with an 18:1 gear ratio for smooth, accurate tuning adjustments. A bone nut completes the instrument's traditional playing appointments.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Epiphone Dobro Hound Dog M-14 combines its resonant metal-body construction with carefully selected hardware and vintage-inspired details. The newly designed resonator coverplate, biscuit-style bridge, and traditional headstock appointments preserve the instrument's unmistakable Dobro character while providing the functionality expected by contemporary players. Factory-equipped with Gibson .012–.053 gauge strings, the M-14 is ready for a wide range of roots-oriented playing styles. A Dobro-branded hardshell case with exterior graphics and a green plush interior is included, providing secure protection for storage and
