Gary Moore owns an Ozark 3515BTE thinline resonator and used it for his first-ever acoustic blues track on record. His Ozark guitar can be heard on the track 'Sundown' on his latest album: 'Close as You Get'. "I used an Ozark resonator that I bought in a little store about two minutes from my house in Hove," Moore explains. "The guy said to me, 'Try this little Ozark...they sound great'. I really liked it, so I bought it on the spot and took it home. This was just before Christmas and I ended up sitting home playing it around Christmas to people in the house. I love the way if you hit it a little harder it gets twice as loud. It's really dynamic - if you dig into it it just suddenly shouts at you and the sound gets really loud. The weight is there, but it's got a much skinnier body than most resonators, so you can hold it much closer to you and it's not cumbersome to use."
