Does anybody play dobro or resonator guitar?
I like the sound and want to get one but would like to know how difficult it is to learn compared to a regular guitar. I play guitar a little already but want to try something different and don't have a lot of time or money to devote.
I know, I know, if I want to get proficient I need to practice a lot but I don't really want to get "good" just fair.  Thanks!

Open tunings and slide work may get your interest up before going out for a Dobro, National or other resonator guitar. You may also want to consider trying out "lap style" and using a steel bar.
Another way to extend interest in open tuning playing is to take a try at Hawaiian "slack key" picking.
