I had a Wallace True Tone in my GFI. It sounded great but the pole pieces didn’t line up with the string spacing and that always annoyed me. ...

I have a couple of Dunlap bars that I’ve been able to tap a few 3/8" threads into the flat end. I screw a stud into the bar then chuck it into an electric drill. I sanded them down to 3000 grit ...

Wow! This thread makes me realize how much I’d love to see a museum for steel guitars and players. It's sad that there isn’t enough people in this world that would be interested enough to make it ...

Yes! A “must read” for any steel player. So many questions get answered in that book. Through the years I’d often wondered what possessed Buddy to move to California when he did, and now I know.

There's a really nice EMCI that's for sale in west Kentucky.

A bit of history here... When you bought a new Sho-Bud in 1959, you probably got a letter from Shot Jackson like this one my dad got.

I've read where the Pro Reverb was voted the best guitar amp ever made. They said it beat out the Twin Reverb because the Twin Reverb just had too much power for your normal 6 string guitar.

Back on the “I’ll come Running”…. I once saw a video of Wayne Hobbs backing Connie Smith on that song and he absolutely nailed it to the ground and stomped on it. It was truly amazing to watc ...

OMG! These are absolutely fabulous. It sounds like Buddy had everything working perfectly that night. His technique and tone on Blue Jade brought tears to my eyes. Maybe because I try so feebly hard t ...

Found this pic on Reverb and I thought it was an amazing idea. This Wheeler PSG has adjustable collars on the pedals to change the leverage.

It’s amazing how Buddy could take a simple melody and turn it into an eye watering masterpiece. Thanks for sharing Chris!

Typical Buddy! In other words ….. Absolutely brilliant playing! Thanks for sharing that gem.

Heck Yeah, every band oughta’ have two steel players!

Someone please post the whole show, I’m foaming at the mouth here!!

This one really hurts. Ron was one of my all-time favorites. Just last week I had got on a Ron Elliot kick and was searching for recordings of him. RIP Mr. Elliot!

Oh no …. another great one gone. I always enjoyed his playing.
My dad often talked about playing with Russ in Chicago in early 60’s before Russ was a steel player. They always got together at the ...

There are 3 Sho Buds on Craigslist right now that were lifted from Ebay sales. One is in Memphis and another listed in Iowa.

I just saw this on St. Louis Craigs List. Maybe not quite what you looking for but has a good price.

Holy Cow! I’m thinking it’s time for Paul Franklin to cut his own album, and this song must be on it. In other words….I want more!

Very tasty playing Paul! AND….as far as I’m concerned, there’s no such thing as overplayed, just under appreciated. LoL!

This is truly sad news! B0b’s efforts touched the lives of practically every steel guitar player in the world. He was a great man!
