Got the body a few years back and went from 6 to 8 strings and handmade bridge and found Gibson P90, mandolin keys.[img][/img]

It appears to be a repainted Harmony Roy Smeck model. Looks good.

Thanks so much for the info. I will be playing it on some Hank SR music at the IMAX in Branson. I put Don Helms "Hank" tuning with a 7th on the 7th string I guess that makes it E13th.

If your 8th string is B, you have Little Roy Wiggins tuning. His book is worth playing through. It opened my mind to lots of possibilities. https://www.steelguitarshopper.com/products/%22Little%22-Roy-Wiggins-Memory-Time-Songbook.html

By the way, Mel Bay has stopped putting CDs in their books. There's a link to online audio instead. Sad

Yes to the B on the bottom. And thanks for the Roy Wiggins tip! Will be looking at his stuff shortly. George Jones by George
