Fred Justice is going to build me a Justice Pro Lite!!!

Post by Jerry Bailey »

After 6 long months of not knowing what to do, or buy, and driving my wife crazy about the PSG, the answer came via E -mail. Fred Justice took time to help me understand about the PSG. I told him I did not want to spend 4 to 6 grand at this time. Because, I don’t know how to play the PSG and did not know if my brain could ever learn. After many Emails and more phone calls from uncle Fred,( not really uncle ) he made me feel like family. I went with the Justice Pro Lite. It’s a pro model with less weight. And, the best part he is making it for me. It should be built by April 15 or so. Oh by the way, it’s only 1995.00 and can do anything a full size SD 10 with pad can do!
Thanks.
Jerry

Fred builds some great Steels - now you need a new seat to match.

I have actually built a Mica covered seat for one of Fred's customers and Fred supplied me the same Mica as on the steel.
