So sad to hear. Sincere condolences to all the family. We hope you can gain some peace in knowing how much he was loved and respected by so many.

I'm looking hard at the TT12 Combo, but also interested in the Mach 3 for dual work and additional features. However, I especially don't want to sacrifice any steel tone. There are some good posts her ...

Thank you so much for your diligence and patience in leading the Forum for so long. It is a blessing, and we are all deeply indebted to you.

Got a hardback ordered for the permanent shelf. Thanks for all the hard work!

Nice Steel, Marc. Congrats!

Great Bruce stories here too. Thanks all. I saw him first at the ASU gym in Boone, NC, spring 1976. About 500 people max, and they played for hours. Coincidentally, it ...

Hey Greg,

Great to see this recognition. Congratulations! Pretty good company too - Sam Phillips, Brian Setzer, and Jim Heath.
