Paul Franklin Method

I’m on year 3 of Paul’s course, and feel fortunate to have access to the incredibly wide, deep, and detailed information that he presents (with the attitude that “we’re all students “, including him).

Excellent PSG Mechanic in Seattle

I heard about Patrick Timmins of Seattle from a great review on the Forum (apologies to the author, have misplaced his name). Based on the review I asked Patrick to convert my Kline U 12 to an extended E9. Patrick did an excellent job and was a pleasure to deal with. He’s conscientious and creative,...

Zum u-12

This is a great guitar, and Lynn did a beautiful job cleaning it up and getting the setup just right. It ended up as the 3rd of 3 guitars, and just didn't get played enough to keep. Beautifully built and restored - it'll make a great guitar for someone...

Americana on the steel

I came to the steel late (later 50's) after many years of playing banjo in bluegrass bands (insert Doug Baumier comment here:_______:)). I had never played an amplified instrument before, and never with drums. After a couple of years in the woodshed I ventured out and started playing steel in an Ame...

Eric: Saw you with The Halyards at Bake's Place in Bellevue last month. Hadn't realized you were a steeler. Excellent show, enjoyed your guitar playing and Chris Middaugh's steel. Album sounds great, planning to pick it up. Love to hear more of your steel playing.
