well, it's official. I am the new owner of this guitar. it was Terry Bethel's personal guitar that he played on the road with Mel Tillis. He also made several recordings with this guitar. It has 9 pedals and 9 knee levers. I plan on kepping this guitar a Long time. it sounds as great as it looks
here is a link to the song IF on youtube on this guitar

Thanks Fred, Bethels are rare guitars. Terry believes this was the only one ever built with split colored mica on the front. Dick Miller built this guitar to be durable on the road for tours with Mel. |
