Weldon was a great player for sure, and he was a big influence on me too, Tiny. I was lucky enough to get to know him when I played on the Opry with several different artists. Sometimes between shows ...

Thanks David, I will be in touch.

Looking for a BJS 15/16 12-string bar. Anyone have one they would be willing to part with? Thanks

Jon, I ordered an exercise knee pad on Amazon and used it for a seat build. 2 1/2" thick and very firm. And under 30 bucks shipped. It was 19" x 15". I cut it down to size on my band sa ...

Thanks so much for posting this Barry, I appreciate the very kind words. I hope to see you once again!

Ben, I sure miss seeing you at the jams. I hope you are doing well in sunshine land!

I am very sorry to hear of Shoji's passing. I picked with him while he still was working with David Houston and went bass fishing with him in Louisiana a few times. He loved to fish! A great violinist ...

Boy, that is about 7 miles from me ( as the crow flies) LOL! I wish I could make it Jimbo, but I have a gig about 75 miles away and won't be able to make it. Have a great time!

What is the length? I am interested. And weight? Is it a John Hughey bar?

Thanks for the response, Ricky. I was curious about the all-pull differences vs. the pull release guitars. Just in case I would have work on one!

The bushings I have for the crossrods are 5/16" diameter. I had 3 Marlen/Speedy West models over the years, and they all had the 5/16" crossrods. I never had an all-pull Marlen. What size of ...

Tommy, I have some swivels (10 or so), delrin bushings (for crossrods), lower stop screws, and a tuning wrench that fits the lower screws. Let me know, and I'll get them to you. They were all from a S ...

I have known Tommy since he started with Moe Bandy. He is a great picker, heck of a nice guy, and a great friend. And a man of many other talents, too I might add!

Tommy, that was a great picture book! I really enjoyed looking at the pictures and reading the history of your Emmons progression! Your friend in steel guitar, Roy Peterman

So very sad to see this. I pray for comfort for his family. RIP Bob

Sorry to hear this Tommy. I was lucky enough to play on some sessions years ago that he played on. I didn't know he was a fellow Virginian, Tommy. Great people for sure.
RIP, Ray.

I am looking for a Sarno Freeloader in good condition for a fellow steel picker. Thanks

Nice, Rick! One of my all time favorite gospel songs. I really enjoyed that. Wonderful picking.

Great price on that steel, Burnell. I wish you luck selling it. I hope you are doing fine!

Great job on that, Joe. Boy that song brings back a lot of memories. I played that song quite a few times when I worked for Joe Stampley back in the 80's. I sure enjoyed your rendition! Great tone, to ...

Mike, a beautiful job on those cabinets. Those are one of a kind for sure. Could I ask what jig did you use to cut the joints? You are quite the craftsman and tech!

Boy Steve, that is sad to hear. It has been months since I corresponded with Woody. He was a great guy, and very knowledgeable about many things. I learned how to build cases when I worked for him dow ...

Sperzel does sell replacement tuners, but not a specific set for pedal steel. I have purchased individual tuners from them before to replace them on SKH Emmons guitars I had. (I have 2 SKH guitars rig ...

Found one to buy from David Nugent. Thanks David! And thank you Gary for your reply. Please close, Bob.

I would like to buy an empty cabinet for an LTD, or Nashville 400 in good shape. I have an LTD chassis and need a cabinet. I think a Nashville 400 cabinet is the same size (I may be wrong) and could b ...

Beautiful cabinet, Billy. A one of a kind guitar!
