The Steel Guitar Forum

Guitar is sold. Close 'er up b0b, and thanks for the interest everyone.

Priced to sell, baby!

This is a customized Simmons U12, 8 pedals and 7 knees. It has separate sets of LKL's for B6th or E9th, but you can set it up any way you want. It has a lock lever to keep it in B6th. Easy to tinker with and customize. Asking $1300. Feel free to PM with questions, thanks. http://bb.steelguitarforum....

If you are handy and looking for a winter project this seems like a heckuva good deal to me. I gigged with a McKenna 8-string for years and it had good volume & punch... It's hard to go wrong with a McKenna.

Although attendance was down from the '90's and early 2000's shows I attended, Lynn is right that there was quite a crowd for the main stage, espc on Saturday night. It was a shame that there weren't more vendors but some of what we are facing here is a demographic shift beyond our control. I'm sorr...

Best lines heard at the convention:

Scotty: "Leonard, how many years did you go to Hawaii?"
Leonard: "Pretty good, how about you?"

Dang! I didn't know they had a Facebook page! Good deal.

This reminds me of gun shows, where patrons are allowed to walk around with a shotgun or rifle over their shoulder with a "for sale" sign attached... imagine walking around the ISGC with a vintage double-necked Sho-Bud draped over your shoulders... BTW, we have conceal carry in MO too, and...

I'm sorry to hear this, Jim, both because of the problems with your dad and because you will be missed. Best wishes and we will be thinking about you.

...also would be open to a Williams keyless, Carter, Sierra, or GFI in that range; must be single body; but would need to test drive first.

I am looking for an Excel U12 in the $1500-$2500 price range... have one you want to sell? I will be at the ISGC Friday-to-Sunday next week... contact me and perhaps we can avoid the shipping charges.

Norman's first in line but I sent you an email too. you out there, Mark?

Paul, that guitar is just the coolest thing ever. I hope you don't mind, but I stuck a couple of photos of your hot-rodded Fender on my Facebook page.

Dave, I am interested in this guitar -- please PM me -- thanks!
Dirk

I realize you are not on the internet at this time, but questions for the next time you are:
--what is your price?
--does it have an armrest?
--what is the weight in the case?
Thanks,
Dirk

b0b, please close this thread -- thx.

Thanks Mr. Dixon,
I have my U12 now, a Simmons... sorry the guitar isn't working out for you. Isn't there a shop where you could get the setup you need? Hard to do anything about the bowing, I guess. Anyway, best of luck with your guitar --
Dirk

Sold to a happy new owner -- thank ya Chuck!

Chuck, shoot me your phone # when you can -- thx,
Dirk

Headline says it all. Prefer keyless but am interested in any possibilities -- thx!

I agree with some of the sentiments expressed here. --I'd like to have Buddy Emmons feel welcome to attend AS A SPECTATOR without people bugging him to get up there and play. --I'd like to see a younger act, like Dale Watson or someone like that, kick off the Friday opener. --maybe I missed somethin...

Here are some photos from ISGC on my Facebook page -- trusting that the link works:

Just heard this sad news from a friend on Facebook. Not much I can add to what has already been said. Don was my teacher and a friend. Miss you bud.

He played great, and had terrific tone too.

I have some pics and commentary here:
