Fred, you continue to "up the ante" when it comes to the beautiful workmanship! Kinda reminds me of the old sayin' in business:
"Quality Service, Every Time--Every Customer!" You have to be very proud of shipping Justice Steels around the world. For you folks who have just started in steel guitar or on the prowl for a new steel, you must attend a show where Fred has his steels on display...you'll get his "one-on-one" attention and a test drive of a very fine steel. Way to go Fred! Carl

Fred, that's a keeper for sure. I think your right, that's probably the purties one I've seen.

Justice Steel guitars

Interesting that Fred has a steel going to Arabia. Recently I pulled up the site on steels in European countries and was pleasantly surprised to see the number of steel guitarists and conventions in European countries. I only know of one manufacturer, in England, but there must be others.

For those that have shown concern as to what they will do with a steel guitar in Saudi Arabia, this one will be played by a white American living in Saudi Arabia.
I would imagine a sizable amount of good ole country music will be played on this Pro Lite.

I personally think its wonderful that the pedal steel guitar has become a well accepted instrument in the countries around the world. Long live the steel guitar. :D

I really like the two-tone colors, reminds me of a '57 Chevy.

Nice job Fred, on another superb guitar!!

That is a very beautiful guitar FRED and I wish you well with your sales. I am sure that those strings will sing out LOVE and PEACE in that neck of the woods too . I always believed that the WEST was won through the lovely graceful COUNTRY MUSIC and what better way to perform it than through this endearing piece of AMERICAN engineering and everyone knows your design has brought it to perfection. EVERY BEST WISH and MUCH SUCCESS for the FUTURE. JAMES TAYLOR ROSEHEARTY SCOTLAND

Astoundingly beautiful... These guitars play and sound at least as good as this one looks. I try not to think too much about cosmetics, but it's hard not to ogle this one.
