Bump, I've played this guitar. Excellent condition.

I've owned an Ultra and this Expo sounds as good as my Ultra did.

Seller is motivated and trustworthy.

Ah, additionally I noticed this guitar had once been a D-10 but it's C6 undercarriage was stripped out and a pad was built in over the back neck. I don't know a lot about the Sho~Buds other than I had a Pro-I for 2 years that I played out. Other than that my knowledge is very limited. Just curious a...

Sho~Bud Pro III Question **Photos added**

I was doing some studio time last weekend and a friend of the owner leaves his Pro~III there basically for a roof over it's head and I have a question about what I saw. This guitar has what appeared to be a mother of pearl snowflake inlay on the front of the guitar and on the fretboard. Was this com...

Everyone else has great ideas that you need to check out on your guitar. Next thing I don't think I saw anyone mention (my apologies otherwise) next time you change your 3rd string, run out your nylon tuner a half to a whole turn flat. This way as you're bringing your 11 in tune a little more gradua...

had someone ask me once upon a gig if I knew how to smile. I think it's a common trait among steel players. A lot of concentration is involved in playing steel. I've always heard a story that Dolly Parton fired a steel player because he wasn't looking at the audience and smiling like the rest of the...

I just returned from a 2 month pickin' hiatus. I got home from a gig one night, put all my gear inside, and went to bed. Over the next few days my ears were still ringing from the subs I was sitting near at the gig and I recalled my frustration during the gig. I didn't enjoy myself as much as I woul...

What do you mean by "adjusting the pedals"? when you say the B pedal travels way too far for you what do you mean? Does it seem too close to the ground compared to the A & C pedals? If so, take a look at the pedals on most pedal steels & you will see more often than not the B pedal...

plug your guitar directly into your amp & see if the same thing happens. if not then check all your cables & your volume pedal...could be the volume pot taking a dive.

E9 pedal steel blues progressions anyone?

I would love to hear some ideas on what some of yall do--more of the memphis and chicago style blues. Not turning up much luck on youtube or either I'm just not looking in the right places.
