Good luck with this, Chuck. However, you might reach out to Steve Lamb in Ft. Worth as he might be of assistance. Also, Shane Frame up in McKinney might be able to help but I am not sure if he works on push/pulls or not.

While it may be a distinction without a difference, dusty conditions also get my attention like cooking in the Texas sun. In the late 1990's I played with a couple bands who were invited to do sets at the Terlingua Chili Cookoff in deep southwest Texas. Essentially, we are playing on a stage in the ...

ISO tone bar .75" x 3.25"

I am probably looking for hen's teeth, but I am searching for a tone bar that is 75" in diameter and 3.25" in length. I have one that I can't part with and would like a backup. The bar I have is a Dunlop 902 which is no longer made. Let me know if you have a good one to part with...Many th...

Season 2

I found a couple sources online that report Season 2 of Cocaine and Rhinestones will soon be available from Tyler Mahan Coe. From what I read, the entire Season 2 will reflect on George Jones. His website doesn't reflect it yet, but hopefully it will show up in the next few days. Just passing this a...

I think I saw a picture of a seat owned by Johnny Cox that has a tailbone relief cut out of the cushion. I suspect it would be for a similar reason. It actually appeared to be professionally done...Hope this helps

Dennis....I know there are several folks carrying pots for the VP.

I ordered mine recently from Jerry and I received it in less than a week. Quick service.

Once installed, I can’t tell the difference from my other Goodrich with the original pot.

My wife and I attended a private wedding celebration in Marble Falls, TX over the weekend. The night's entertainment was provided by Darrell Goldman and his band.

I started from the very beginning with Reece and he put me in three fingerpicks and thumb. His explanation if I remember correctly was the ability to claw big chords, such as he was remembered for on a U-12. Over the years, I played that way but never could make full use of the third finger except t...

Sometimes, you find yourself in a position where you locate a tuning nut that is loose and you might need it to last a while longer until you get new ones.

I keep Teflon tape in my steel seat. Just a few wraps on the threads and thread the nut back on. Works very well...FWIW
