My new GeorgeBoard

Post by Niclas Nilsson »

I just got my new coral maranti GeorgeBoard today, straight from San Diego (six days from payment to delivery, wow!). I'm really happy about it, and wanted to show you guys a picture of this sweet little guitar:

In the words of the master builder himself: Ya gotta love it!

You really do.

/Niclas

(The ol' Sho~Bud wanted a spot in the picture as well, apropos of HowardR:s thread about non pedal popularity among pedal pushers. She thinks Howard might have a point, and she's not at all happy about the situation.)

The more I see of those guitars the more I like em. The sound samples on their website sound great. That Sho-Bud is sweet too.

Enjoy your Georgeboards Niclas. You have two real fine steels there.

I have to admit, the Sho~Bud is my No. 1 love. But then again, in connection with the thread about non pedal popularity among pedal players, the difference in weight is ... well, pretty big. My arms hurt just looking at my Sho~Buddy.

In Howard's thread Gerald Ross wrote: "Non peddlers typically carry a tiny lap steel, a small amp and a pint of scotch."

In my case, with this small, lightweight, yet wonderfully well-built steel, that means I'm able to carry my GeorgeBoard, a small amp, and a bottle of Jim Beam Black.

I carry a lap steel, a small amp, and a fine Sonoma County Pinot Noir.
