Near the top of the line. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)
More amps than guitars, and not many effects |

What Lane said.
Classic Sho Bud sound with modern mechanics. Gorgeous well made guitars. And they don't get better than Jeff for follow up service and help. Pull the trigger; you won't regret it. _________________ Mark T

I don't know that I'd compare it to a Sho~Bud, other than some of the ascetics and string spacing? However, I got to play on "The Lloyd Green" model that Larry Lenhartt owned for a short time, and was very impressed with the instrument. This particular guitar had its own vibe and was a very positive playing guitar...I wasn't disappointed at all. _________________ “TONESNOB” |

I've been playing a Show Pro for almost 14 years. Never an issue. Plays as good as the day I got it. I actually own two. _________________ Show Pro #26 & #83,BJS bars,Stereo Steel,Tommy Huff cabs loaded with JBL D130's, Wampler pedals,NV112,NV400, Steelers Choice Seats |

I bought a used one a while back. I'm told it is one of T.W.'s old ones. I had to make some changes to make it "fit" me, but I did, and I like it better than most that I've oned - and I've owned *A LOT* of them over the last 55 years. You're right about Jeff too - he's great in my book... Jimmie |

I have 2 D10 Show Pro guitars and they are absolutely top quality instruments. They are brilliantly assembled and finished, and have great tone. Jeff Surratt's customer service and care is as good as it gets.  _________________ 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.

One of the best steels out there and if I was to buy a new one to add to my 3 guitars it would be a Sho Pro over any other brand. _________________ Private one on one lessons available
