It's a NO BRAINER....."Sho~bud" all the way.
Just buy that blue shobud in the for sale section and be done with it...and move on man.

Justin - congratulations on your new aquisition. I think you will be happy with it for many years to come. It is a good investment, both financially and as an instrument.

Please post some pics when you get time, and I am glad that Dr. Seymour helped you in your decision-making process.

Ken, he bought an Emmons that has to be the most beautiful steel guitar ever! An Emmons natural with a sunburst front, some gold and silver tastfully on the hardware. Biggest baddest rolling birseye maple that was ever created by nature.
Pictures are a must! How 'bout it Justin?

Justin and I have been conversing over the past week by emails what he should be looking for in a steel.
I recommended several brands and ideas.
He like me is both an Emmons & ShoBud guy.
He wrote me in the car on his laptop on his way back to Georgia. I think he made a fine choice and will be very happy with his purchace. The best part is he made a good investment with his money.
Now let's see those pix you promised me.

I am ShoBud through and through, but my next addition will have an Emmons logo on the front of it. I really think that Justin made the wisest move by trying before buying. I know it is not always possible to do so, but when parting with a not inconsiderable amount of cash it has to be the most sensible way to carry out a transaction like this. Some guitars look the part but don't sound it, and no picture can convey the tone of a guitar. There are variances even within the range of each manufacturer. Some simply sound better than others.

Well, hopefully he'd didn't run into something while "typing on the laptop in his car"

Sounds like you made a great choice, Justin. And you have a new friend for life in Bobbe Seymour.

And I think many happy hours of 'shedding ahead! Congrats!
