Watching RFD Country Music Cruise The Super Backup Band with Mike Johnson, Jimmy Capps, Dirk Johnson , etc., it looked like Mike was playing an all pull guitar possibly a Lashley Le Grande. Can anyone confirm? Anyway no matter what he plays he is my favorite player of today's Steelers.
Other favorites Gary on Marty Stuart, and both Steelers on Pressly Band in Branson.

If the steel you're talking about was red--go to "Steel Guitar East" web site. They're showing a good picture of Mike Johnson with his restored LeGrande II.

....guitar in pic is myn old SKH....I played it with Ray till he passed. That's the point I decided to hang it up, The Chief being a pretty tough act for anyone else to follow. It seemed such a shame that the guitar wouldn't get played anymore so I let Mike talk me out of it. Built by Bryan Adams.
