Hi folks....just a thought.
A BIG thumb's up for all the great steel guitar builders....Emmons...Carter...Jackson...Lamar...
Mullen...WBS...Zumsteel and many others. What would we do without them?

| Even though they are not made today we still have these floating around (maybe not the best descriptor since they are not feather-light): Kline, Rusler and Dekley. We guitarists are indeed lucky to have such a variety of choices. stevet |

| In my humble opinion, the best steel guitar I've ever played is the EXCEL, made by Mitsuo Fugii, also known as FUZZY. |

| When I posted "Rittenberry", I was on my wife's ipad. I had to change the entry three times to get it to read correctly. You wouldn't believe what it "auto correcterd" to!!! |
