| I watched it last time it was on ebay. 300054953037 was the auction number ,description is different. Same picture .Reminds me of a Williams keyless tuner and fret board. But the rest who knows. |

I know.........and thing is, that seller has definitely received emails by now telling him it's not a 'Bud. Do you think he'll correct himself? No way.

...and the best part of the description:
"The winner must contact to seller after the bid ended, you has 5 days to complete payment or bid will be avoided."
you've been warned - buyer bewhere.

"The lap steel is very nice and Unix professional custom made, very easy to setup the pedal is perfectly soft very well working, no sloppy."
I wonder how much shipping is from Mars.

...if that one "looking exactly same sho bud model 6153", then I look EXACTLY like George Clooney. Last time I checked, I didn't.  |

Also pedals, frame and changer don't look like any Sho-Bud.

I looked several times and started to say that I don't see any thing that looks like it is from a Sho-Bud. But then I noticed maybe the legs could be!! I have a deck of cards that looks more like a Sho - Bud than that does. Maybe he meant
Show (your) Buds and have a good laugh. |

| Seller is a piece of work. Aside from writing at a third grade level (no child left behind, indeed), browsing through the negative feedback, one finds stuff like refusing to ship the goods to the auction winner because basically it's a free country and he (she?) doesn't have to sell to someone if he doesn't want to. Neat. |

I sent an email when it first hit telling him/her that it was not a Sho~Bud but it did have a few features that looked like it came from an old Williams keyless...
The response:
are you sure budd?
So, it is a Sure~Bud  |

Maybe someone should run that license plate number, and see what comes up.

i didn't see the other pictures....so after viewing those I came to the opinion that this is a partsguitar.Look at the armrest....somebody made that themselfs.
Not to well fabricated when you take a real closer look at the guitar.

Has anybody else noticed in the picture that the pedal rods have a disconnect on both ends and not a hook on one end. Triple raise and lower ,adjustable lower springs. I wonder what it really is.
I also what the desciption will say next time it is on ebay. Last time it was from a pawn shop and no idea of the make. |

| That guitar is an early Williams keyless. Williams pickup, changer, keyless mechanism and fretboard. All logos have been removed. It seems to be in fairly good shape, but is NOT a Sho-Bud. |

| It actually looks like a pretty cool guitar. But that seller is sketchy. I don't understand the motive behind their deceit. |

Doubtful it's a rare Sho~Bud.
This is a rare Sho~Bud

From November 1957. Before it was converted to a 10 string. Rare indeed!

I *would* think the description would be modified or questions listed.
But I don't get worked up over bad grammar. In this case, it pretty clearly appears to be a non-English speaking seller. While it sometimes it makes for...interesting...reading, I don't consider it a "fault".
