| I believe this is a guitar built by the late Bobby Bowman, who was not only a great musician, but a great craftsman. He assembled and set up many, if not all, of Herb Remington's guitars while Herb was building them. |

Bobby was my truest and most trusted friend in the world, a genuine brother to me. And his memory is a blessing.
Just sayin'...

That is a treasure, and probably very rare, indeed. I don’t know how many of these Bobby built, but knowing him, I am sure it a well built guitar.

Not half enough good things said about Bobby on this thread, he was like a brother to most of us, he took me to the cattle Baron's Ball he was one of the things I loved about Texas......
Now if that guitar was this side of the pond.... |
