Howdy folks,I'm Shane and I've been watching and learning from this great forum over the past year,and I just wanna thank Ya'll for sharing,it's been a beacon in the wilderness.I've played 6 string my whole life and last year got bit by the steel bug.(No!...not carry the D-10!).I recently got into C6 and Love it.Last month I bought a 1980(or there abouts) Emmons D-10,wood necks green laquer on curly maple 8+4,Kluson butterfly tuners and she is BEAUTIFUL!I run her into a Mesa Boogie Mark 3 head and JBL speaker cab.
Anywho,thanks to b0b,and I look forward to chatting and learning.
Cheers,Shane
