Mrs. Lee would say, "Why do you need two? You can only play one at a time."
Beautiful Sho-Buds, there. |

| Thanks Rick ''ole buddie '' . The Pro-ll Custom i bought new in 1977 and had David Jackson install the big pedals on it at the factory . The L.D.G. My wife and i drove to Hartsville Indiana and picked it up . I changed to the big pedals on it . I don't like the little pedals that manufacturers are using these days . Then thats only my openion ! The L.D.G is an 82-85 model according to Ricky Davis best guess . Ricky is good at this kind of thing . Both of these guitars play real sweet . I have played others but nothing like a bud to me . As we say one size doesn't fit all . Again thanks Rick for posting my buds for the world to druell over . L.O.L. Best regards , Gary . |

| Bob when you get a little older you try to find a guitar that is a lot lighter to carry . In my case the Pro-ll Custom stays in my music room and the L.D.G. goes with me . And it makes it eaisier to teach with both guitars set up . My students get i little blessing playing my buds . Gary . |

I must say that since Gary put that new Jerry Wallace pickup in "Ole Lloyd",He sounds Grrrrrrrrrrrreat!!!!!  That pickup has some bite to it. Rick, you need to come upand give "Lloyd" a test drive with the "True tone installed.Sounded pretty good thru my Nashville 112 too. |

| Hi James . Jerry used the Sho~Bud windings ,whatever that is . But whatever it is MAAAN it is GREAT ! I never thought that a pickup could make such a difference but was i wrong ! I am thinking of a new one for ''Ole Bud '' also . I just about have Lloyd where i want it now . I suppose i'm a die hard Sho~Bud lover . Gary . |

Hi Buck . Good to hear from you my friend . Love your cd. I think i have two of the best Buds around . I just insatlled a new Truetone pickup in my Lloyd and it came alive ,what a tone . I will no doubt get one for ''Ole Bud '' also . I bought ''Ole Bud '' new in 1977 . I bought Lloyd about three months ago . I am using a Nashville 400 ''Piggy Back'' two cabinet set built by my ole buddie Rick Johnson and man what a sound i get through my Lexicon Processor . I am very happy with my sound now . Thanks for your reply and hope to see you soon . Best regards , Gary .
