Here's Jeff's latest, a charcoal burst/w rope inlay, curved knees (all 5), Wallace Truetone pickup wound to 18,000 ohm. Fit & finish perfect, extremely smooth action, unbelieveable tone. It's exactly as I ordered, completed & delivered in a very timely manner, well before date given. What more could be said about Jeff that hasn't already been said. An excellent craftsman, luthier & a true gentleman.

Jerry , You're new guitar is absolutely beautiful . I know you've always been partial to black . The charcoal finish allowing to see the beauty of the wood is an excellent choice , along with the keyhead curved knees and the rope inlay . I know you'll enjoy this guitar . _________________ Show Pro #26 & #83,BJS bars,Stereo Steel,Tommy Huff cabs loaded with JBL D130's, Wampler pedals,NV112,NV400, Steelers Choice Seats |

What a lovely guitar and still a legend today. It is a real beauty and I can just imagine it singing all the way to the top of the pedal steel hit parade. There will be many admirers of this superb instrument and perhaps it will one day be installed into the PEDAL STEEL GUITAR HALL OF FAME , as one of the great instruments that has inspired so many people JAMES TAYLOR |

Jerry, I would be embarrassed to take that thing out into the public. You should send it to me. I have no pride, so it won't bother me.
Seriously though, that is one awesome guitar. If I ever get into the position that I can afford a new guitar, a Show Pro is the way I am going to go. _________________ Carter D10 8p/8k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup,Regal RD40 Dobro, Recording King Professional Dobro, NV400, NV112,Ibanez Gio guitar, Epiphone SG Special (open D slide guitar) .

I keep coming back here to look at it, so I just finally copied some pictures. That steel is too slick, just too slick. |

Jerry, you guitar is exquisite.
I love my Show Pro D10 (#129), and everyone who has been fortunate enough to cast their eyes over it has been overwhelmed by its beauty and huge tone. I went for the Lawrence 710 pickups on my guitar, and it is a very lively and responsive instrument. Jeff Surratt is a master builder, and I am proud to call him and Gloria my friends. _________________ Show Pro D10 - amber (8+6), MSA D10 Legend XL Signature - redburst (9+6), Sho-Bud Pro 111 Custom (8+6), Emmons black Push-Pull D10 (8+5), Zum D10 (8x8), Hudson pedal resonator.

I find myself going to the Show Pro site and looking at all the picturs and drooling. Then start crying because I can't afford one.  _________________ Carter D10 8p/8k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup,Regal RD40 Dobro, Recording King Professional Dobro, NV400, NV112,Ibanez Gio guitar, Epiphone SG Special (open D slide guitar) .
