Dan if anyone needs a good talking to, it's David Wright.

I knew it wasn't one of mine. I've only done a couple push pulls. A natural birdseye lacquer for Ronnie Tibbits in Georgia and a Black mica for(oops,senior moment, I can't remember his name just now)in No.Carolina. Nice job Paul

Dittos to what Jim H. said. Pali is the best.

Kyle Bennett just informed me that Reece just suffered a massive heart attack. He needs our prayers. He is in ICU. Please do not call Teresa at this time. We will here from Kyle or other family in due time. Thanks,Mark

Jerry is correct, it was Unitec.

Not only Frank Carter, but also Dave Jones, currently in Bulverde, Texas also worked with Bob on the Sahara sometime after Frank did.

David, Super glue is a good idea. It is what I have used many times to fix the very thing you described. Put a few drops between mica and the wood, press and hold down the mica for 30 to 60 seconds(depending on ambient temperature) and you're done. But, have a soft cloth dampened with acetone at the...

I started building for Jimmie in 1996 until his passing. Lloyd had a rosewood mica JCH. Jimmie wanted me to build him a green lacquer guitar. Something special. I had Lloyd send me an autograph done with a sharpie. I inlaid his signature and the JCH logo with ebony and mother of pearl. The rest of t...

Anyone have a phone number for Paul Warnick?

Bill Flores, I saw Murph a couple of times with Vassar Clemmetts. He played steel and sax with finger picks. I dont't remember if he kept his thumb pick on or not. It would have been hard to see it behind the sax. Great player and great guy. Also a hot band with Vassar an Murph. Also saw him several...

To my knowledge all builders use contact cement. You can sand by hand or sander. Yes, smoother is better. No clamps needed, although you can use clamps with cauls.(blocks used to distribute clamping pressure) Most folks use a J-roller .available where mica is sold. Thickness affects sound although n...

They are the best. Contact Jason York @254-968-4220

This is absolutely the best western swing band today. It's worth the trip (from anywhere) to hear them perform. Roger and the rest of the gang are great musicians and great guys to hang with.

I play a Star. It's not listed either

Carters came with Ernie Ball strings. The color you describe sounds like SIT stainless that I use on my guitars.

I use Red Dirt cases exclusively. First class cases from first class folks. Jason York is the man to call.

RKR lowers E's RKL raises E's a half and a whole tone

Yeah, What Donny said.

Bud got it right. We've got a live one here with Bobby Black on steel. One of my favorite albums and Player.

John, I was trying to say that McGuires works better on mica than Windex IMO. It certainly will clean off fingerprints and smudges from endplates and necks also. As already stated, it's great for polishing lacquer, urethane and most other applied finishes.

Again, Richard and John know their stuff. McGuires is tops and also works beautifully on mica guitars, I think better than Windex.
