33 lbs and no tube maintenance.

The stock Fender Twin Tone Master has the best tone, feel, volume, and performance of any steel guitar amp that I have played through. If you want classic Buddy Emmons, Lloyd Green, or Weldon Myrick tones, this is the amp. Just set the treble, middle, and bass to taste. I suggest treble on 7, middle...

Older Webbs (i.e. low 700 series) had the serial number stamped into a small metal plate mounted outward and positioned sideways on the side rail between the 2 back panels. Not hard to miss.

Bob - Thanks for the information on your set-up. By tuning your string 7 "flat" to match your C# notes and then raising the 7th string when you lower your E's, you confirm that there are various methods being used to lower or raise the 7th string to bring it "in tune" with other ...

I was thinking that an 1/8 tone lower on string 1 or string 7 on E9 may be becoming more common these days, however, that may not be the case. Its hard to determine because the change may not be mentioned on a tuning chart. I use an 1/8 tone lower for the 7th string on pedal A. This drops the pitch ...

Wondering how many players use an 1/8 tone drop on the 7th string to lower the pitch slightly so that the 7th string is in tune with strings 5 and 10 when raised to C#.

Do you also drop your 1st string by 1/8 tone on the same pedal or another pedal?

Thanks.

The Franklin has been sold pending payment.

Thanks.

Franklin D-10 8x8. The guitar is serial number 107 with a Valley Pecan mica finish and Lawrence L-710 pick-ups. I am the second owner and had Paul Franklin, Sr. add 4 knee levers to the original 8x4 in 2006. The guitar and case are in good condition. This is a fine instrument which I have enjoyed an...

Does anyone have a copy of Julian Tharpe's 12 string tuning that they could provide? Per a previous post, Julian at one time played and demonstrated a 12 string MSA for Maurice Anderson.

Thanks.

Randy -

I appreciate the reply. I am always curious (as are others) about favorite players and their equipment.

Rick

Randy -

Always enjoy your playing and tone. What pick-ups and bar are you using these days?

Thanks.

What equipment set-up is Paul Franklin using live with the Time Jumpers as far as amps and effects go?

Thanks.
