Hello Folks,
A little post describing a redone Emmons GS-10. It was the same colors (red-burst) as Stu Shulman's new GS-10, but not in as good of shape... Here is Stu's thread - https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=368798
So... I figured I should do something about that, and here is what I came up with. Once I put it together it kinda reminded me of a bumblebee, hence the name.
It's light as a feather, and yet has some fine tone. Check out th short video link found on the bottom of this post.
Thanks for looking. 
And a short video demo...

That's real nice Mike! Given enough time, Stu's will look like that, the way the paint is flaking. Good to know that there's real wood underneath.
I love these little guys. Case weighs more than the guitar. |

Thanks all for the kind words!
Yeah, the paint was flaking off this steel like needles on Charlie Brown's Christmas tree...
