Dallas Show~Pro Lite Delivery~Beautiful Guitar

Fred Justice · Post by **Fred Justice** » 25 Feb 2015 1:28 pm

I'm delivering this beautiful Pro Lite to Mr. Dick Hitchcock at the Dallas Show on March 12th.
It'll be perched on a table all weekend for all to look it over real good.
Loaded up with 4x5 and a tone machine for sure.

Great looking rig Fred, I love th Prolite looks also.

Hey Fred, what does that set screw do on bar brackets? Just curious.

Fred Justice · Post by **Fred Justice** » 25 Feb 2015 10:34 pm

Henry I'm not sure but I think you are referring to the slack adjusters on the cross shaves.
If so, they take the slack out of the knee lever, from swinging back & forth.

Dick,
You told me your new ProLite Justice was going to be a real looker and boy you weren't fooling! All the best to you and your new rig.
Fred, is that a new color mica you are offering? What's it called?

Congratulations Dick, that is a beautiful guitar that you're getting. I appreciate getting a chance to see the pictures since I just placed an order yesterday with Fred for a Pro Lite 3x4 with the split apron using the White and Blue Ripple.

I'm sure you can't wait to take delivery and start playing it. Try not to tease me too much with comments about how well it looks, plays and sounds, I have a while before I get mine.

Enjoy!

Jeff....I wouldn't want to tease you, but as soon as I get it, I will let you know what a treat you're waiting for.....Fred certainly puts his all into his steels....He is a fine craftsman, and I am proud to call him a friend....I'm sure you will enjoy yours as much as I'm looking forward to mine! Dick.

Fred,

Don't know how you make the front of the guitar cabinet, but it is beautiful.

Gorgeous undercarriage. I have not seen a design that looks cleaner than the Pro-Lite.

Sounds good Dick, actually I want to hear all about it. And I agree, the quality that you see and hear in Fred's guitar reflects his passion to build the finest.

I haven't actually met Fred but enjoyed the couple of conversations we had about steel guitars, players and music in general. I'm sure he is very busy and appreciate the time he took to talk with me.

Dick it is not nice to intimidate me with that Beautiful steel guitar. do you think maybe you mite let me sorta PLAY it sometime maybe

That is the color I what...I am so glad for you. Take care & God Bless .Jerry F.

Fred, that is a really nice looking guitar. I like all the polished parts you do a good job.

Dick Hitchcock · Post by **Dick Hitchcock** » 3 Mar 2015 6:13 am

Jerry.....You're welcome to play it any time you want to.....For sure in Baxter, and I am hoping to make the Heartland show......We both fell in love with that guitar in Baxter Springs at the same time.....Fred didn't have to talk very fast to convince me I needed it.....We'll see you there if not sooner....You will be missed in Dallas.....Dick.

What's really interesting is that the general public doesn't get to see the beautiful figured maple slabs that Fred uses to assemble the cabinet well before the mica ever gets applied. That's a treat that Fred reserves only for the buyer of each guitar he builds! God bless you Fred. You are truly one of a kind.
