I have the Infinity Universal, pedal action is a dream, Frank has a special changer he invented, uses rollers for smooth feel. Love this guitar.

An acquaintance has this BMI guitar for sale. I have not seen the guitar or know the condition. Also has a Goodrich pedal. Call Rob Cannon 541-271-0169 for info.

Ray, I thought that might be Johnny F. I didn't recognize Steve, but I should have. I believe he still lives in Milwaukie around the corner from where I used to live. I ahve not found a trace of my old tripple neck Magnatone, but would like to. Michael, I was not on those tunes, I joined the rambler...

Ray, that is a very cool find!! Who were the other players? Johnny on fiddle?

Was that KGW TV?

And the Steel? Bigsby?

Dwight, Do you have a closeup pic of the pickup, and the changer? My MSA looks like yours, but I have played it to death and my changer is getting tired. I imagine your changer is able to do two up or down on each string? My 4 knee levers are LKL LKR RKR RKL. I would have to fashion another LKR to r...

Hi Pete, did you try Tom at Sierra In Molalla? I hope this isn't a stupid question, I just found out about his move recently.

Bob, I am not an expert on capacitors, but I usually replace all the electolytics in my Nashville 400 every 4 or 5 years. They can dry out and affect your sound. Every time I change them out, the amp sounds better. This may be similar to a car wash, that is, my car seems to run better after a wash a...

Doug, I have an IVL SteelRider, they don't make the unit any more and I worry that someday it will fail. I too have thought that one could use two 6 string pickups and two of the 6 string converters. Problem might be the freqency of the 6 lower strings would not work well because the converter would...

Have two tables 78 to 33 rpm. Transfering my LP collection to CD. Using Sound Forge and or Adobe Audition to clean pops and clicks. Most of the time the resulting audio is as a new LP. However after saying that, it takes about 30 minutes to restore a cut that has many scratches, but worth it.

My sound has always been warm and fat and thus always had trouble cutting through to match the lead guitar player. Recently I installed the upgrade kit from Peavy and now my Nashville 400 does the dance. It has given me the warm fat sound and the highs are smooth and silky. I am very happy with this...

Kiyoshi I have been playing U12 for 25 years and Played a single E9 for the first 25. I love the E9/B6. I think of my guitar as one tuning, that is, it is capable of E9 sounds and C6 sounds. try not to think of it as two different tunings. Most of the time I start out playing E9 stuff and there will...
