I can't speak highly enough of the prompt and efficient service I got from Billy. He took care of everything, not only setting the guitar up just how I wanted it, but also conducting our transaction in a speedy and thorough manner. I had some serious time constraints and Billy made sure the guitar reached me with time to spare.
I can't believe it was only five days ago I saw it on the Forum - now it's set up in my music-room and it plays perfectly straight out of the box!
Jimmie's guitars are amazing. It's a solid as a rock and beautifully finished. The George-L pick-up sounds great - I like it better than the s/cs in my Emmons.
One happy steel player here.....

Spent most of the day today with Billy, helping him set up an Emmons for a friend of ours. Had lunch with him. A day well spent.

A few comments:
- Congrats, Roger, on your fine JCH.
- This should be in all capital letters -- Billy Knowles is simply the best!
- Clyde, besides helping Billy set up that Emmons (I think it's the one I just bought from SGE), I hope you helped him celebrate his birthday a day early. Wish I could have been there. |

Great guitar Roger. Bet she has great tone.
Billy Knowles is one of the really good guys on the PSG scene and one of the most knowledgeable.
