Been in a couple of times since Bobbe's passing. Same as usual. Couldn't ask for better customer service as usual and wound up having a nice visit. Just like Steve said, I'm glad they're still in business. They're 2 1/2 hours from me. That's how far it is for me to have a shop for STEEL GUITAR NEEDS and GLAD they're there. So Bob, and all the guys, THANKS for being there and I guarantee you I'm not the only one who is proud, and glad, they're there. THANKS GUYS! P S I remember Vic and Jeff Peterson workin there Just all round good people.

I always call and ask Michelle if I can speak to Bobbe.. (it's an old Buddy Rich joke)

I just received my latest string order a couple days ago. I like the Cobra Coils and have been using them for years.

Bobbe and I go way back to his days in Philly.
SGN is always a stop when I'm down that way.

Maybe this will clarify. After Bobbe's passing a former customer of ours approached Michelle and I about reopening the store (due to Bobbe's passing it was closed for two months) We had several meetings and finally came to an agreement that worked for everyone. As of right this minute there are 3 equal owners myself, Michelle and Tom Bozeman. Essentially it's the exact the same with the exception of carrying Seymour's instructional products. I obtained legal rights for the Cobra Coil Brand. I a currently in the process of selling my shares of the corporation. Bob has graciously stepped up to the plate of helping manage the store as I'm on the road and have no time to invest.
Please continue to support Steel Guitars of Nashville without it there will soon be no stores like it.

SGN and now SGoN have always been a 'must visit' place in Nashville for me when I have visited the town. I always found Bobbe to be very entertaining when he was there, and was pleased to learn that the business would continue after his sad departure.

I love Cobra Coil strings, and bulk buy them on each trip. I will visit in September this year. I have found Michelle and Vic to be very accommodating and helpful folks in the past, and I am looking forward to meeting Bob Hempker for the first time when I visit.

I stopped by the store today... talk about a great bunch of folks. Nice inventory of guitars and supplies. Be sure to give them some business, I sure don't think you could go wrong.

I logged on to their web site the other day to order some accessories and lo and behold they are no longer in business! It goes straight into the steel guitar covers! But nothing else! What happened! Did they finally have to close down after Bobbe's death? Anyone know?

Buck used to work on guitars when Bobbe owned the store. He is particularly good with Emmons push pulls and is a handy guy to have about the place.
