My New Zumsteel
Posted: 17 Apr 2002 8:01 pm
It finally arrived yesterday. I've been so excited about playing it, I forgot to get on here and share the good news.
I have never, I REPEAT, never seen a guitar play this smooth, have such great tone, and always stays in tune. I never thought I'd say this, but, here goes. This guitar has better tone, has sustain out of this world, and out plays any guitar that I've ever seen. This thing sounds better than my Emmons and that's saying a mouthfull. Don't get me wrong, my Emmons is a great guitar but this Zum beats it hands down any way you want to stack it. I guess I'll have some people on my a** about telling the truth but that's exactly the way I feel. I'm not bashing any guitar or builder out there today, there are many great guitars and builders on the market but my choice hands down is ZUMSTEEL.
Bruce has absolutly outdone himself this time. You know, I don't even know what the colors are of my guitar. I know part of it is honey maple but I'm not sure what the top is. Guess I'll have to call Bruce and find out.
Even with my very un professional hands this thing sounds like no other guitar. Believe me, I have 2 of the most clumsey cramped up hands out there. I can't wait to hear a good player sit down behind this Zum. I'm calling some of my great player friends to have them give this thing a test drive. You know, guys like BILL DEARMORE, SKEETER BLACK, STEVE STALLINGS, DON SOURSBY. The list goes on as far as great players in Cen TX, me NOT being one of them.
Sorry to ramble on. As soon as I get my damn camera fixed, I'll post pictures.
