"I was at that meeting in Texas and ordered a Resound immediately. I've been playing it for about half a year. It's an absolutely astonishing steel. The sound has it. That clear as a bell shimmer along with perfectly focused mids and lows. The elusive quality is the visceral response the 65 has. It directly responds to touch in a way that I have only experienced with perfectly set up PP steels and a couple Franklin's I used to play. I ordered a red one because I thought it would look cool on stage."
Well said, Bob. I didn't post photos of my ReSound 65. It is black, like Mark Robinson's as posted above.
Kelcey and Mark were present when I took delivery. I felt the pedals and levers, strummed a few chords, then started noodling. There are a few songs I play when I warm up or sit behind a steel for the first time. I started playing them, along with my requisite clams. I looked up after a few minutes and saw Kelcey and Mark smiling. I realized that I had fallen into one of those Zen moments that only occur when everything is just right.
I had a very nice 1970 cuttail at that time. It was expertly set up, and played as well as practically any all pull steel you will find. It sounded great. I no longer have that steel. It needs to be played. |
Jim, it was such a pleasure to meet you and to watch as your guitar was set up for the first time. I was very fortunate to be on that trip and met several of the incredible musicians in Texas and Louisiana.
Your description of having “fallen into one of those Zen moments that only occur when everything is just right” is spot on. It’s extremely satisfying when everything comes together with this beautiful instrument.
I hope you enjoy yours as much as I’m enjoying mine, and I trust that it’ll bring you years of reliability. |

Boeing has built 14. 787 Airplanes in the last 30 days.
No Emmons shows to be built in the last 30 days on the WIP list.
Do not fly on a 787 Airplane. The Quality control is not up to the Emmons standards. |

I should be getting my Emmons Resound 65 very soon.
Will post photo when it arrives.
Red SD10 should be a sharp looking steel. |

Could someone post pics of the underside of the Resound? Big clear pics suitable for close ups?
