Jim,
Sorry for misspelling your name...

Bobby was really proud of this steel. He kept it set up in his music room.

I just made it here, so I don't know what you said but I will add my two cents. The International Steel Guitar Convention is a family reunion for me each year since my introduction about 20 years ago. I only wish it had been 35 years ago. Each year I look forward to seeing and visiting with my frien...
