I tweaked forum member Will Cowell's Marlen steel, to make the playing action a bit easier.
It has an Alumitone pickup on it, and Will has converted it from a pull-release changer to an all-pull, check it out here:

Very nice, Richard. Great sounding Marlen...

J.K:- I think it was Tom Brumley.

Richard:- You're spending too much on steel guitars and not saving enough for a pair of shoes. I am glad you have your priorities right, like me.

Mind you, I watched someone playing without their pants (trousers) on recently, now that's going too far!

Nicely done,

David

Richard, that is great, and that Marlen sure sounds good.
I always enjoy listening to you on anything your playing on.
Mayby the Red color and Alumitone p/u, add to the sound.
