Got mine and I can't stop reading. Great book.

Just ordered mine a few days ago and can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks for this.Ron

Happy Birthday Lloyd. Wishing you a blessed day.

John, The reason you can't get in touch with them is that they are made in China now and I don't know how long ago they moved. Thanks John

Yes but They don't make them for Steelguitars anymore. They did tell me to just soak the ones I have in fingernail polish remover with acetone. Not all of them are stiff so that's a plan now. I ordere ...

Thanks Bob I will watch for them.

The Grovers I have are like that too and I'm not drilling on my Franklin so they can fit. You know Grovers are made in China now so that is a problem too. Changes are not always for the best. Thanks B ...

Yes I was told the same and I got some Acetone like sperzel told me and I am going to soak them in that and it will break it up some. I was told by them to use some Lith-grease on it then. Hardest par ...

I ordered some Grover tuner keys but they are too small. Any idea's for getting them from Grover or other. My sperzel tuners are real hard to turn. I did try oiling them but didn't work. Sperzel does ...

I was told by Sperzel that they were not available anymore and he said get some fingernail polish remover with Acetone in it. Soak the keys and then put Lith-ease white Lithium grease in it wherever y ...

Happy Birthday to you Brett and keep up your journey to playing. Have a great day.

I really like mine. Just has that bite that gets thru. Good job Kevin.

Very Nice Playing. RS Very Happy

If you come up with something John please share with us to see what might work.

I was just wondering what the hype was for flags on the knee levers. My right does work for both necks and is harder to work but no problems here. Thanks for all the input.

I think I'll just do what I've done for all these years , just play it the way it is. Thanks for the info. I wondered why people put them on. Now I know. Ron

I tend to sit more right than in the middle of the guitar. Long time habit I guess and now I'm used to it. My Franklin has the letters 060 on the bottom and I got it about 1982 I think. My Zum is the ...

Jack the black one looked like an idea so as not to mess up my levers. Actually I was thinking more of the little Zum Encore with one on the left knee left.

What do they put them on for? I thought maybe because it hurts your knee on certain ones because of the size of our knee levers. I would not mind doing it on a couple but I don't want something that h ...

I met Jim maybe 8 years or more ago and had him put a knee lever on my Franklin one time while there and spent many a day visiting and playing some of the steels on display in his shop and was able to ...

We are all fans of this Great Player. Give him best of wishes from all of us. Learned to play listening to him.

It is worse than a bakery for us steelers. Nice looking guitar. Hope it sells too Wiz. Ron

My Franklin did not come with it and I have never had any issues. Jim Palenscar worked on it once and never said anything so never knew why. Thanks for the replys. Ron

Just kind of curious as to why the cross bar on some steels? My thoughts are, it has something to do with not flexing? Ron

I don't really know why I bought mine in !982 from Mr Franklin.I went to the steel convention in St Louis to order one and after playing the demo model, I ordered it. It just sounds good to me. We are ...
