I’ve heard that sometimes it’s possible to remove paint from tweed by sticking duct tape on it and then ripping it off. I’ve never tried it myself.

If you use it for “boo-wahs” (ala Jerry Byrd), put the tone pot where you can grab it with your pinky. Mine is the fifth long scale fry pan that Todd made. We went back and forth over knob placement and ended up with this (tone on treble side): https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2203/212_1_1.jpg...

Yeah, with the slider switch, it was probably a triple or quad and they added the pots, it looks like the tuner pan was changed to the later style and the original with lollipops is in the case.

New guitar day

A couple of rather gorgeous new guitars a friend of mine just finished. I’m keeping the eight string, the six will be up for grabs soon. Lollar and Sentell pickups. Basically a mahogany sandwich on bubble maple. They sound really great, hard to put down. I’m keeping the eight but I think the six may...

Hearing Reece was what got me interested in pedal steel. We corresponded a few times and he was always very encouraging. His jazzier recordings remain a huge inspiration for me, the man could swing. Cool photos David, I love the one with his Bigsby and the one with the 2x12 Session 400, you don’t se...

Glass bar manufacturer?

I bought this bar here on the forum and really like it. Can anyone tell me me who might have made it? It’s about 3 1/2” x 7/8”
Thanks

It looks like there is some old touch up paint on the edge of the diamond. The black probably hides some kind of mistake. Kind of like the oversized plates you can get for a light switch, for when you screw up the cutout.
