Dates of manufacture: 

2003

This version of the single cone spider bridge Hound Dog resonator guitar was made in the China for Gibson who aquired OMI and the Dobro/Hound Dog brand in 1993. Some of the Hound Dog Dobros were made in the USA and it can be challending to tell the USA made and Chinese made models apart.  One way to tell the difference is the USA one has a stamped number on the top of the headstock, the China one has a serial number printed on the top rear of the headstock. The headstock logo used to be stamped on the USA made ones and a decal on the Chinese models - but decals were also used on some of the USA made ones so this is not a reliable way to tell them apart.
