After posting in the "Steel Player" section, I was told to try here.


My grandfather played steel in several bands in West Texas from the 40s through the 70s. His name was W.M. Stansbury, based out of Cross Plains, Texas near Abilene. I know recordings and photos exsist and I would love to find some. Some of the players he played with are still in the area. He played a Rickenbacker D16 which I now have.

I understand this is a needle in a haystack, but I know what a tight knit community steels are so I'm hoping for the best.

thanks for your time.
