Does anybody have a copy of this record?
Sho-Bud Presents The Nashville Set-Up Vol.1
(Private pressing by David Jackson, who owned & operated Music City Manufacturing Co., which is where the majority of Sho-Bud steel guitars were built from 1970 to 1981; it's now called: Jackson Steel Guitar Company U.S.A.
For some unexplained reason the album cover reads "Sho-Bud Presents The Nashville Set-Up Vol.1" but the actual label reads "Music City Manufacturing Company Presents".)

Yes, I believe I do have that record. I'll have to check to see if it's the right one. I'm away from home, so I'll get back to you soon.

If I can remember, the book I have actually says "Recording Steel Guitarist - Paul Franklin, Jr."
Maybe it's the record cover...
Would've been about the time Paul Jr was doing alot of this type of work according to his own postgings I've read. |

OK,
The record I have IS in fact "Sho-Bud presents the Nashville Setup Vol. 1".
My Mom owns the book (with her Maverick), I ended up with the record when it was stacked in with a bunch of my old ones. I thought about making a CD or MP3 of the contents, but it is STILL SEALED in the cover.
So, I need some opinions... Which is more valueable... THIS record?... Or what is on it???
Thanks,
Jeff |

How collectable is it going to be?
The stuff on it is pretty cool.
It's like old bamboo fly rods - the guys who made them meant them to be fished with - not stashed behind glass in a fancy case.

That's my line of thinking...
I usually cringe when I see nice guitars sitting in museums not being played.
I just wanted to do a quick check to make sure I'm not sitting on hundreds of dollars here. |

Jeff, your statement brings back some memories to me. It reminds me reading the story of the Nicolo Paganini's violin which was bequeathed to the city of Genoa at the time of his death in 1840. It was a Garnerius del Gesu (whose violins are as celebrated as Stradivarius's but less esthetically finished). The violin was put under a glass in the city hall and left there so the people of the city could admire it. Upon celebrating the 100th year of his death in 1940, the authorities of the city asked a luthier in 1937 to examine it to make sure it was fine. When taken out of the glass, it litteraly fell apart in pieces as the glue had dried from being in this environment lacking humidity which would have been provided had it been left in use.
So, from that time on, they have arranged to have the violin played regularly and it is now even possible to rent it and have it played by qualified musician in your city. Same goes for the Stradivarius collection in Cremona where a curator is charged to play the violins every day. I have a friend cellist that went to visit the Smithsonian museum where he got to see and play the Servais cello, supposedly the best Stradivarius ever made.
In conclusion, only cheap instruments should be put in museum or they should be played for demonstration which, after all, is their ultimate purpose.

exercise is not just good for old fat guys - it's good for old instruments.
Somebody find me a 1958 Les Paul to work out with.

Alain-Yves Pigeon,
That's pretty funny! I never knew there could be a practical reason to not "museum-ize" something.
Thomas,
Would you like a copy when I run this off?

| I have that LP somewhere in my storage. I believe the naration was done by Jack Boles, whose booming voice was up to the job. Jack also worked at the Broadway store for several years |
