Thanks - Lots of new models

Many Thanks for the good words.

WE have a new resource to CNC the Wood - Brass/Nickel and Acrylic here in Oklahoma City, USA. So why not take advantage and create a whole new line of Steel Guitar Consoles.
I am following in the Foot Steps of Fender making 22.5 - 24.5 - 26 scales with new means to create S-D-T-Q-P necks.

At This years Texas Jamboree Mr and Mrs Boards opened a serious dialog with Joe and Billy of the SWSGA about going to the Phoenix Festival next January. Our role will be totally about the Non Pedal Aspect. It will be a great opportunity to renew old friendships with the West Coaster's.

My plan is to enhance the Non Pedal Teaching Clinic concept as well we would get the Live Web Cast going there too. I've already contacted the Hotels AV provider and they have plenty of internet juice needed to do a Broadcast.

This is the 1st I've talked about it publicly and hope to generate enough Interest to make it there and a success. :D

non pedal teaching clinic

Post by Stephen Eger »

I am new to non pedal steel guitar and at the Texas Jamboree last month I visited the Georgeboards booth. Mr. Boards very graciously spent 40 minutes to an hour showing me how to hold the tone bar and block and other various tips. It was a big help and a real inspiration! I really wanted that Stealth lap steel, too! I hope you get the teaching clinic going.
