The Steel Guitar Forum

My deepest apologies to everyone for trying to vent my frustration here. I just thought that after the MSA problem with deposits and then the Emmons mess that someone would help me get my problem with a builder straightened out with no hard feelings. Thanks all, WC Edgar

Yes Jim let's shut this one down, we wouldn't want to make any waves now would we? After all don't you play one of this brand of guitars? Bob, let's close her down and everyone can look for us on Judge Judy if the backlog isn't too long, if it is I'll wait. WC

Thanks to everyone that has emailed me and didn't want to post, I really appreciate your help. Also thanks Jim P., Roger and Bob for your input. As for Jim Smith, he has based his opinion what the builder in question has filled him in on and doesn't have any idea what went on between myself and the ...

Thanks for the reply Bob, Any other artist endorsements I have ever had whether it was an amp or strings or guitars or whatever had a contract with the endorsement that stated some of the policys required to the artist but in this case there were none. Up until this point the builder in question and...

I am having a bad time with a guitar manufacturer that I had sent a $500 deposit to. It was a deal where I would play the guitar on the road for a bit for some added exposure with a well known country artist and report to the manufacturer what I liked or disliked about this or that about the guitar ...

About 1993 I was living in Nashville and working with Marty Haggard I believe at the time. Had a few weeks off so I took a week long gig with a guy named Jim Purty and drove from Nashville to Norfolk Va in a crowded van pulling a trailer. Before we even started playing, this goofy drummer named Jim ...

Eric, I'm from Pluto not Uranus as previously stated in other posts, Ha! Thanks for the nice Email and If I ever get Red, Westly, Wichita and the boys up to the Northwest we'll stop by the VFW and say How Dee! Ha! See yas, WC

Thanks for your replys. One question for eric only, What the hell planet are you from? b0b, go ahead and close er up before the question and answer man bores us all to death. WC

You would think that there would be more than 2 steel players in this area looking for an easy hard country steel gig but I guess not. Hope it wasn't the fact that you had to have good intonation that scared them all away. Everone bitches there is no real country music out there but no one will even...

Thanks for the nice call today Hal. Glad the case is doing you a good job and hasn't been thrown out of a 747 or used for a wheel chock for a Greyhound Bus. I'd like to find someone in Kansas or Oklahoma or southern Nebraska to play steel on my show but it's pretty slim pickins out here for people w...

Before you go cutting you might check the thread size. On a lot of Sho Buds they used a "raised and rolled thread" versus the "cut" thread. A little something I picked up from Mr. Sho Bud himself (Duane Marrs) when I lived in Nashville in the 80's and 90's. Good luck, WC

I played on one of these at the Dallas Show a couple years ago and WOW! I'd buy one before I bought another guitar of "ANY" other brand and I'm a nut for "That" Tone. WC Edgar

Still looking for a steel player to complete my show. Based out of Central Kansas, will start with weekends and never be out over 4 nites at once. I worked with Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson, Ty England, Marty Haggard, Opryland USA Playing steel myself but now I'm trying for a new record deal and need st...

Sounds like a plan! 10-4

I'll be flying into Salt Lake City on Dec. 5th to pick up my MCI Tour Bus and will be picking the 6th and 7th at a small bar in Paysun Utah. If there are any players in the area please contact me and come on out. I may need to borrow a Peavey amp because I hate to play through a Twin that the guitar...

Great News! We have changed a few things around on the business end and have decided to keep all of our dealers out there and even add some more to the seven we already have. Also we will be adding another model to our "Toteseat" line called the "Econoseat" which will be more lik...

New Years Eve my Sho Bud goes in the case and under the bed. I'm in the process of selling everything else including my 76 Vette. The only reason the Sho Bud stays is because it was willed to me by my mentor. I just came to a crossroads in my life where it wasn't fun anymore. I have played with Tim ...

Effective 11-15-02 Toteseat.com's "Toteseats" will only be available direct from the website at www.toteseat.com Rising Shipping and Parts Costs along with Dealer Discounts have forced us to make this change. Thank You, WC Edgar www.toteseat.com

Ken, I have gotten six from him (Dan Dowd) in the past two days and the Norton Anti-Virus caught them. Dan is out of town according to his Bud Jerry Fessenden and does not have his computer with him. WC

What it all comes down to after all the talk about an inch too high or low is that either you can play the instrument or you can't. I don't really care if it's 21" or 20" or even 19" because sometimes I play in boots and sometimes in flat street shoes and sometimes in tennis shoes. Wh...
