SOLD ...Boen 8 string lap steel w/grover tuners

Post by Don Reed »

Sold....The late Jim Boen built this little gem for me about 15 years ago. Has a great tone, and I used it mostly with a super-bro. Something about this particular pickup with a match-bro or super-bro just flat clicked. I did recording sessions with it and used it at the show I worked at. I do not own a dobro and the 8 string setup gave me a lot of options. $250.00 plus shipping. Reply here, or call 417-334-0337. One of the knobs broke but can be easily replaced. Also includes plush lined case.

Jimmy was a friend of mine when I lived in Ft. Smith, Ar. He had his guitar shop in Arkoma. I could have very well seen that guitar being built. He had a special (secret) way of winding his pickups, that made them sound very good! I'd like to have one of his ten string pickups now. Jimmy passed away a few years ago.......

There is more in parts alone, than the asking price.

Someone will get a great deal on this!

I've not received any correspondence and, recalling that b0b said that there has been a problem with the SMTP server on the forum, if you would email me directly at Steelguitars@cox.net we'll get it done.
