This guitar is an awesome first steel guitar. It was the guitar I learned on.

It sounds great, keeps tune, and plays really well.

Comes with hard case, and a tuning wrench.

Was rebuilt just last year by Jim at Steel Guitars of North County - I bought the BMI from him, and its been in good hands ever since.

(just the guitar for sale - nothing else pictured)

asking $1000 shipped US only

PM or email tim (at) milkmansound.com

Hey Tim, I don't see where that would be a "beginners" guitar or "first guitar"........The BMI is a very well made instrument and is as good as anything out there. I have a BMI S-12 which I've beat pretty hard and after 16 or 17 years it's in better shape than my old ShoBud which I bought new and had for around 12 years. Also, I got my BMI used at Scotty's convention in the consignment room. I think this would be a very good "Pro" guitar for anyone with maybe one more knee lever. If I played a 10 string I'd probably buy it myself but I like those two extra strings. Your S-10 looks exactly like mine except for the extra strings and pedals I have....JH in Va.
Don't matter who's in Austin (or anywhere else) Ralph Mooney is still the king!!!

good point. I will change it.

Certainly I took this guitar with me and did real sessions and real large venue gigs with it, so its as pro as anything else!

The Holy Grail is awesome. The spring in my Twin comes and goes, and I have not had a chance to repair it. Plus the Hall setting is great - its nice to have the choice.

I would also like to mention that I will consider trading for a newer reissue tele, depending on the value.

still play 6 string as well as steel in some of the bands I am in.
