Tommy was my friend for more than 30 years. He loved any & everything related with Steelguitar. He was one of those guys that could fix anything & had much experience in areas that related to Steelguitars.
Tommy developed a modification he called MaxTone that enhanced sustain & tone to many different brands of guitars & in most cases helped the guitar to hold its tuning.
Many of us will certainly miss him.
RIP my good friend

When my wife had a her milligram done the first time, Tommy talked to put my mind at ease. He was definitely one of the good good ones. He will be missed for sure.
