Wow, cool! Love the small size (and the blurb on the website about putting it in the overhead bin on a plane). Would like to try one sometime

Hey Jim
I will be up for a visit and talk to you about a 12 string if this is possible.

Can we hear a sound sample?

jim flynn · Post by **jim flynn** » 23 Jun 2012 12:10 pm

I haven't recorded it yet. I think I've got all the
gear to do, but just haven't thought about it.
I'll try to get something out soon.
Thanks,
jim

I saw this bad boy in its early stages and I must say the sustain is out of this world!
This is a mini Emmons on steroids.

Very innovative, but for me the obvious question is why not go all the way and make it keyless? I'm a little concerned about that ninety-degree bend the strings go through after the roller-nut. Is that going to cause premature string-breakage?

Perhaps keyless would have added additional length, I'm not a builder so I really don't know. But it looks well-engineered and if it has the genuine push-pull tone it ought to be a worthwhile steel for players who do a lot of travel.

Sure would like to hear this Steel in a demo.

Hmmm. Finally a steel I could set up & play in my truck sleeper! Looks pretty interesting. Would sure like to hear it.

Thanks to all for the comments!

I have used this keyhead design (90degrees) for almost
5 years now. I broke 2 strings on my original 6"lite"
during that time, Since March with the ELITE 10 string
I broke 2, one when I caught the string on a block at
the work bench, the other due to stupidity. String
breakage is not a problem.
Putting a keyless unit on it would add about three
inches to the overall length, while I'm not adverse to doing it, doing so would may limit it as a carry-on.
and who knows I may do it anyway, could save a little
in the cost. I appreciate all the comments, anytime
Thanks--Jim

Very interesting PSG. Is this guitar going to be at the St. Louis, or Dallas Show?

jim flynn · Post by **jim flynn** » 8 Jul 2012 3:23 am

I always go to the Dallas show, it's like home to me.
Great people and products.

This guitar will be available to play at the show.
Thanks-Jim

Jim is starting on my Universal 12 string.
We will get some pictures up in a week or two.

Here's a rough look at the body of my Universal 12 string except mine will have a polished neck.
