Some nice smooth jazz from a great but relatively unknown steeler.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJO9XrmojD0&feature=related#

I bought a 66 emmons from him back in the 70's.

I have a 500 I don't use anymore with gig bag and power supply, cables, etc. It is black with gold aftermarket tuners. Email if you are interested.

Bob, I'll take the 2L and 2R. Send me your paypal address.
