Wayne,
Although I just Puchases a New Carter D12, and am exreamly happy with it..I have to endorse Lenord and his fine Marlen Guitar, Company and Staff.
I just attended the latest Mid Atlantic Steel Guitar Association (MSAGA) Jam at Danville ,NC. Mr Stadler, ad two of his staff( which are oustanding PSG players as well as skilled manufactuers,instucters,repair personal, and People..were in attendance. The Marlin PSG is the ONLY steel gutAR REPRESENTATIVE WHICH HAS BEEN IN attendance ar the last TWO MASGA Jams!!.The only publications or advertsements for the MASGA jams have been Marlin.. The Mid Atlantic States cover a VERY LARGE population and and posible Market. It would be wise for other PSG manufactuers,dealers, and PSG supplies and equipment,To Contact the officers of the MASGA for posible exposur to this Market
