Saw this today on a local Craigslist. I'm not necessarily in the market for a vintage bar for that kinda scratch, but I'm curious what the history behind them is, or if there is anything of virtue to this old bar.

That is a tapered bar and excellent for lap steel. Very Happy

There's at least three people who had made and/or still make modern ones, I think they're all in this post somewhere?

I DON'T have a titanium "Amos," but I do have one of Mr. Groner's brass/delrin puppies, and one of Frank Ford's SS ones out of Gryphon Music. 70 smacks for a real, ""vintage" one has a whiff of collecterismic antiquitude, whereby old and vintage just naturally makes things automatically better. Ummm. I like the new ones, but it doesn't really matter whether they work "better" for musical porpoises for ME or not because ->

The Rules clearly state that you now have to buy one, because "You Just Never Know"; with the adjunctive missive being: "You Can NEVER Have Too Many Bars." Wanna try collecting Ferraris instead? HA!
