Wechter Scheerhorn 6535R Rob Ickes: Bluegrass Ace Gives Production Resonator His Approval

June 09, 2008
Wechter Scheerhorn 6535R Rob Ickes

Rob Ickes is a renowned bluegrass player, and his signature Wechter model -- the 6535R -- is one mean instrument, especially in the hands of Tony Polecastro, guitar buyer for Old Town School Music Store. A laminate-maple body and open-screen sound holes make for a loud and open sounding guitar.

If it were ever possible for one to get "funk nasty" on a resonator dobro, it'd be Tony Polecastro on a 6535R.
