Curious!

You know, I think you could loosen those strings and pop the tuning key pan off, and find a handwritten date.
Might make a difference in your sale.
Its in perfect shape!

Steelin Scales and Modes Vol 1 C6

Dear Mike, Thank you for sending me a copy of your book. I'm astonished at the genius of this work. It's making a major impact on my ability to integrate vertical and horizontal movement of single note lines. Being somewhat new to Steel, I have spent a lot of time learning rote melody/chords off ta...

Soft Case Solution for DoubleNeck.

Maybe my enthusiasm overtakes my sensibility and maybe this is just silly, but to me its pretty dang cool. Anyone ever notice how a gun case bag is the exact same size as a Fender Double Neck? Let me back up. In my lustful search for a Fender double neck that I could afford I found one on eBay. It h...

Speechless. I'm in your last will, if not, feel free to add a special codicil, "I hereby bequeath yon double neck stringmaster to that nutcase named Henry...." something along those lines, you get my drift?

Those are magnificent. Thank you for sharing.

Now that's the one and only Gloria Fuentes. That's a piece of history there! I'll check mine and see if I'm as lucky.

Hey folks, I'm new to this forum, and wow it is informative and helpful, and I've already taken a few tabs to work on. Thank you for that, I'm grateful. I saw a thread on here a while back that I can't find now, about the funny markings inside key pockets. I got this Doubleneck recently in my life-l...
