It's a beautiful day in eastern Oklahoma and sitting beside me is Barry Thomas...I found him!!!!!!!Barry's been through HELL and has survived with the help of GOD and a new committed wife. He has been working on relocating to OKLAHOMA...if you're not living in Oklahoma you're just camping out. His new base of operation is in Chickasha where he is currently refurbishing and doing a total overhaul on the 105 yr old Wagner Opera House at 4th and Chickasha Blvd. He has a total of 14,000 square ft...no, you're not seeing double and no I'm not kidding...14,000 square feet , 7,000 of which will be dedicated to the manufacture of steel guitars and replacement parts for any guitar made!!! For those of you wishing to contact Barry, his email address is Dthomasb@aol.com and his telephone number is (405)224-2271. Barry is in the process of setting up the CNC mills to start production in the near future. Thank you all for your concern and questions....the future looks bright.God bless. |

I'm glad to hear this, I have a SD-10 Thomas and I really like it. Did Barry build any with aluminum necks? All the other Thomas steels I've seen were wood necks like mine. Thanks, Tim |
