Yes, that is a LOT of guitar. I had the second 14 string built by Sierra and even in 1978 that was a lot of guitar.

I still have an original 1978 Webb 614-E. Been gone through once in the late 80's and reconed the JBL twice but to answer your question it is a superb Pedal Steel Amp.

The old knobs just crumbled and I have some repro ones that I will use on my '48 deluxe guitar. I guess it makes sense if you have two guitars to have a E7 or something and...

A great loss. Prayers to his family.

I met Buddy once as we were on the same bill, he with Ray Price.

Buddy is the main reason I took up the instrument in the first place.
