Ron builds a great bender. I used mine in working up a honky tonk band and it was simply great. Unfortunately the virus shut us down 2 days before the show. Keep building them Ron.

Hey Ron, nice axe, just curious, what gauge spring are you using ? I have a few Benders and a few different gauge springs which I use to prevent "incidental" bending while standing.

Also what are the specs of the fretboard on this guitar if you know ? Radius and fret sizes.

Big thanks

Hey Ron, I sent you a PM but not sure you got it. We ended up back on Whidbey Island. I gotta tell you the yellow bender I got from you was a real hit with the honky tonk band I out together in Florida. Take care, Phil
