Hello everyone,

Wondering, if there are any Emmons Lashley LeGrande II repair technicians near Clearwater, Fl. If so, please send me an email.

Thank you,

Bill

Hi; I live in Spring Hill, right off County Line Rd. Not too far from you. I also play a Lashley LeGrande D-10. While not a steel tech per se, I have managed to keep my LeGrande working well for the last 25 years.
What is it that you need done? Will be more than happy to help you out if it's something I can tackle.
A couple D-10s,some vintage guitars & amps, & lotsa junk in the gig bag.

If Rich can't help you, there is a steel tech, JR Reich, in Oxford (west end of The Villages). JR has 20+ years working on steels.

Hello Jack,

Thanks, for your reply! Oxford is almost two hours from me.If I need to do that I will. I also have an old D-10 MSA Classic. Do you know if he works on them?

Probably can. He worked for over 20 years at Bonz music in Wildwood (until the owner retired and closed the store). They had all brands of steels for sale, and he worked on all of them.
