Hal Rugg - Tippy Toeing, Loretta singing. Hal was great and had some great licks.

What do I win? Very Happy

I Mis-read the question!

The length of the rod is determined by the distance from the changer to the bell crank.

Wow! Craftsmanship!

What do you expect? We're "Bud" Brothers from a different mother!

That's a fairly early square front Pro III. Double raise modification on 4 & 5 was done at the factory prior to going to 2 over 1 changer. My '73 Pro II got that mod by Duane Marrs around that ti ...

Everything sounds "canned" or digital except the steel. I agree with Donny. Not bad, though.

I'm grateful that I was lucky enough to become friends with Carroll and Anita. Our friendship seems much longer than it actually has been - I'm sure others that were lucky to be a part of their life ...

Nice!

Dave - You wrote that Lloyd told JDC that he had just recorded "Amie." Seems like I have that on a Lloyd record somewhere, but I tried to find it on YouTube and other places with no luck. Am ...

OK, now I see what you did. First pic didn't show the rear of the cabinet top, just the neck and armrest area. Love the unique decal, and inlay. Inlay similar to the original but the horizontal line ...

I just noticed the cabinet top is two-toned?

Looks like what I would expect a modern day Sho~Bud to look like! Beautiful job, top and bottom.

I'm sure the "Purest" of the purists Mr. Ricky Davis will be giving it his blessing soon!

Great history lesson! It's great to still have folks here that were actually there when things like this happened.

Maybe Johnny Cox could chime in about something: I noticed the tuning keys on Bu ...

Sounds like Jay Dee.

6140's were C6th guitars. Originally a blue guitar unless someone talked them into doing a green one. Dust catcher added with non-original screws.

Easy-Peasy - Mine broke 40 years ago! Machine shop fix.

Ya'll need to listen to us Oklahoma guys!

Mike - Sorry, I meant to tell you I liked your take on the song. Your tone was right there with Tom's!

Tom has always been one of my favorite players. I agree with Donny about Tom's change in tone and perhaps style. In his later work I hear what sounds like Kayton Roberts playing Pedal Steel. Smooth, ...

Richard - I attended those jams in the past. Send a PM to Ken Hoyt. He was one of the early organizers. Leroy Wood was another main guy. He'd love to get together again, but at 91 it's hard for hi ...

Sam, you're welcome. I'll use you and Leroy as inspiration. Hopefully I will still be playing in the next 20+ years! I will pass your message along by encouraging him to log on and read it himself.

Recently I had my friend Leroy Wood over to do some playing. He's 91 and still plays often!

Unless changed, it would be rack & barrel.

I bought one new in 1971. It had Grover "milk bottle" style square pearloid tuning keys. I had a second knee added. It sounded good, but it was heavy even for a 18 year old!
