Sweet looking steel there, Mr. Boardz. Does this one have your new hum-cancelling split single coil pickup in it?
Is it your standard 22.5" scale?

THAT beauty litterally takes my breath away!

THAT guitar, without doubt, has to be one of the most beautiful steel guitars I've ever seen.
If it sounds only half as good as it looks, it's surely going to prove to be a WINNER!
Congratulations Mr. Boards! Well done..........

Yes, that's my favorite by far of all your models, George. Beautiful in basic black!

That guitar's a classic, George. Beautiful design.

That is one nice-looking guitar, George. I know it would be gorgeous in white, too.

Very pretty!
5/32 at the nut? Is that your standard spacing for your other designs?
What's the story with that split pickup?

Aloha George,
I think you had better proof read your entries, My #2 Stealth has string spacing of .312, (5/16")at the nut. Do you agree?

Aloha George,
I took my "Princess" to the Aloha Convention, and She was well received there too. She looks great, and sounds even better. I sure am glad I saw your comments on the Forum that led me to buying her from you, thanks for a great instrument.
Mahalo nui loa,

George, Wouldn't that be 11/32 instead of 5/32 at the nut?

George,
My 7 string bakelite ricky is 5/16" at the nut, that's narrow, but perfect for me - is your post a typo?

Hey George,
The confusion lies with a typo, instead of a disagreement. In the first part of your description of your nut string spacing, you call out 5/32", but you meant 5/16, because it is obvious that it is greater than 5/32, just a typo. You agree with that?

Aloha George,
I am totally impressed with your process of guitar building, it is awesome. I don't know how you program your equipment, but it sure does work very well. I am lucky to get both the inside and outside profile exactly right, let alone perfect. Does the cutter follow your outline that you show on the video, or is it a computer generated profile?
The finish that you have perfected is also great, I dropped my bar on #2, and all it left was a slight dent, no cracks, no drips, no runs, HMMM, sounds like baseball doesn't it.
Anyway, you do a great job on all the aspects of the Luthier trade, congrats.
Sorry about the nitpicking, won't happen again,
Phil
