Zum Players in Houston/S.E. Texas?

Post by Jake L »

Hi Y'all...
I'm going to be purchasing a steel in the next few weeks. I was wondering if there are any of you in this area that play a Zumsteel. I would like to hear one live and in color,so to speak...
Thank You,
Jake Lowe

I'm in the San Antonio area, but I was playing my Zum in Houston on Wednesday.... The Zum is a rock-solid, extremely well-crafted, excellent sounding guitar. And Bruce Zumsteg will treat you right!

Jake,

I live on Lake Livingston at Onalaska . I have been playing a Zum for many years . I would be glad to help you decide on that brand of guitar. It is a fine instrument build by a person ( Bruce Zumsteg ) who does it right and is super to deal with .

If you would like to drop up this way and take a look ,give me a call @ a/c 936 -646 -4555 and we can arrange a time when it is convenient with us both .

Regards ,

John

Central TX I have a Zum and there's nothing better. Love it.

Also Skeeter Black in Dallas has one and I think he sleeps with his.

Another friend in Cn Tx the great BILL DEARMORE from Belton TX plays a Zum.

I don't think I have ever heard a negative comment on a ZumSteel.

And to top it all off, Bruce Zumsteg is just one hell of a guy. The Steel and the Man are the very best.
