What Lane said.

Classic Sho Bud sound with modern mechanics. Gorgeous well made guitars. And they don't get better than Jeff for follow up service and help. Pull the trigger; you won't regret it.

I don't know that I'd compare it to a Sho~Bud, other than some of the ascetics and string spacing? However, I got to play on "The Lloyd Green" model that Larry Lenhartt owned for a short time, and was very impressed with the instrument. This particular guitar had its own vibe and was a very positive playing guitar...I wasn't disappointed at all.

I've been playing a Show Pro for almost 14 years. Never an issue. Plays as good as the day I got it. I actually own two.

I bought a used one a while back. I'm told it is one of T.W.'s old ones. I had to make some changes to make it "fit" me, but I did, and I like it better than most that I've oned - and I've owned *A LOT* of them over the last 55 years. You're right about Jeff too - he's great in my book... Jimmie

I have 2 D10 Show Pro guitars and they are absolutely top quality instruments. They are brilliantly assembled and finished, and have great tone. Jeff Surratt's customer service and care is as good as it gets. Very Happy Very Happy

One of the best steels out there and if I was to buy a new one to add to my 3 guitars it would be a Sho Pro over any other brand.
