You've just won the lottery. Which steel?

I would buy up all the black mica in the whole world, so I could own the tone for years to come

If you like looking at knockout guitars, go to the Williams new website and click on sights and sounds, give me all of them. Tom

Franklin and an Anapeg.

I would pave Roys road and then have a Doctor
do a Face Lift on Roy,so he could look as young as he did with Pee Wee King. Then I would buy a
Supro so I could start all over again.

Did I say that before? well take 2.. I would have Roys road paved with Rhinestones..so he could be the Rhinestone Cowboy of Florida.

I beleive this thread is "therapy" after the last few days

report cards must be signed

Thanks Mike..I just asked my dog to forgive me for beating him up. Make that road brick yellow brick so Roy could dress up like the Wizard of Schnozz.

Gotta watch my words here..The Sheriff is watching me Hi Sheriff.

I wouldn't buy anything!! Mine to me are as good as it gets. A Sho~Bud Pro I and an Emmons SD-10. Loren.

Dale Dorsey · Post by **Dale Dorsey** » 4 Jan 2004 8:43 pm

Anapeg and hopefully I would be around after it was made.

MSA Millenium M2's. Seven of them. One for each day of the week.

KENNY KRUPNICK · Post by **KENNY KRUPNICK** » 4 Jan 2004 9:20 pm

3 more Zum's,and 2 Williams.

Well, if I won, I wouldn't have to worry about how I'm going to pay for my new JCH...(Jimmie: Don't worry if you read this - if I have to I'll send Susie out to do a second job!)

Right now, I'm very happy with my Emmons LGIII (a black d10), but, with unlimited money, I'd buy all the pretty Sho-Buds and ZBs that I could find! I love all that 'birds-eye'....

I would hire the best engineers and machinist to design and build what I really want. None at present come close to what is possible.

Do they have to be steels? If I won the lottery I'd be splurging on a whole bunch of other gear.

David L. Donald · Post by **David L. Donald** » 5 Jan 2004 4:08 am

Jody and Roy I already have the mother-of toilet-seat Supro 6.

With a tweed Champ and DeArmond pedal!

But I think I would finance Carl Dixon's steel research for sure.
Maybe get him offices at Fulawka, Anapeg and MSA.
And a nice Learjet, with pilots and Malyasian stewardesses, for the commute.[This message was edited by David L. Donald on 30 November 2005 at 06:00 AM.]

Roger Rettig · Post by **Roger Rettig** » 5 Jan 2004 4:56 am

Oh yes, and I could finally afford a Standel.

If we're talking of six-string guitars..... well, you'd have to lock me up before I lost all control!

Bill Miller · Post by **Bill Miller** » 5 Jan 2004 5:06 am

I'd buy a guitar with some knee levers.

Chris Scruggs · Post by **Chris Scruggs** » 5 Jan 2004 5:12 am

Bigsby D-8 with 4 pedals(two for E9, two for C6) and Standell Amp with a 15" speaker. Oh yeah, I'd have to have my name on the front of the guitar, too.

Chris S.

P.S.
Sorry Jody, but I've already got more than my share of Fender steels, guitars, amps, and basses!

Rick Schmidt · Post by **Rick Schmidt** » 5 Jan 2004 8:51 am

I'd buy the heaviest one I could find, then hire a roadie/pilot and buy my own plane. Then I'd keep gigging a couple years until all the money was gone.

Theresa Galbraith · Post by **Theresa Galbraith** » 5 Jan 2004 11:25 am

Id' buy what sells.

Don Walters · Post by **Don Walters** » 5 Jan 2004 1:46 pm

All of them

as usual, b0b nails it!

MUSICO · Post by **MUSICO** » 6 Jan 2004 10:19 am

Classes with Reece Anderson....that would make my present steel sound 1000% better.

A custom built PSG that would combine all the nice features that I have found sofar.
MSA type Changer 3raise/3lower that is on one of my guitars.
Some ZumSteel mechanics underneath
Some JCH mechanics underneath.
A blend of the sound of my Zum & JCH
Switch for 2nd pickup to get old fender sound.
Sperzel Quicklock tuning keys.
Probably some Norwegian wood.
All pedals and lever located where I want them.
All pulls/lowers perfectly syncronized.

Total of 3 guitars.
1 S12extE9
1 S10E9
1 C6

The wish-list is not complete yet as I will continue to add features as I discover them.

I would make my Legrande play like a Zumm. I would take my winnings and start a business so I could keep America working and not let our jobs go to China or Mexico.
