This might be incorrect, but I thought that open soundwell construction usually used a number of sound posts for structural integrity.

Maybe it's just me but the lip on the cone shelf on the TTT looks larger than my Virginian. Here's the inside of my Virginian:

Very strange. I didn't know such a creature existed. Does it look like someone modded it?

Assuming it's structurally stable some would probably prefer the sound of no soundwell.

My Virginian has open gear Grovers. No idea if they were put on by the factory or by a previous owner.

I bought this fairly early in the pandemic intending to learn pedal steel, but for various reasons I haven't done so. Standard Emmons copedent.

I spoke to Mr. Behm and he said he wasn't producing this DVD any longer, so if anyone has one they're willing to part with shoot me a message. Thanks!

Doesn't look like the Jeffran shop is functional right now so trying to see if I can get these courses used. DVD preferred but VHS okay. Thanks!

Looking for a Tut Taylor, preferably the Tennessean model, or similar R-body dobro with no non-cosmetic issues.

Soundwells okay.

Honky midrange a plus.

Alligator case a plus.

Thanks!

Man he's sounding good! One of my favorite singers. Thanks for the heads up.

Very nice playing and singing.

Wes I haven't received the pictures. Must have gotten lost in the interwebs.

This really is a great resource. So much essential information in so few pages. Thanks Jesse.
