David,
Welcom to the forum! That sure is a good-looking Sho-Bud! I think you made a great deal! I have been playing steel for almost 10 yrs., so my knowledge is very limited, compared to others. I have a Zum D10, Sho-Bud LDGsp, and a SD10 Fessy.My amp is a Nashville 400. Again, thats a beautiful steel you have!

Hi David, and welcome to the forum. Re. how you did buying your setup, definately a great deal. The Sho Bud alone is easily worth that!
Best Regards

Howdy. Nice axe you have there.

Welcome David. you're off to a GREAT start with that equipment. You have all you'll need for years to come.

All you gotta do now is practice your butt off. Of course, you have to realize there's a downside......won't be able to blame your equipment for holding you back!!

And, yes siree, you got a heck of a deal there...all pro quality stuff. Congrats!!
