Hi everyone, my first post here. I've been playing dobro for about a year and a half. I have a new National Sheerhorn Maple that I absolutely love. Is it normal for the top string at the 7th fret to not ring through like the other strings?
Thanks

Does it happen after changing strings?
You’re relatively close to National Guitars. Give them a call.
Does not happen on my Tim-built Scheerhorn.

Thanks for responding. I'll give National a call.

Joe, let us know what the fix (or response from National) is. It’s good for the archives…

Is the “top” string the 1 or 6?

Top refers to the 1st string. Higher in the register.
