Don't really want to, but I have to. This is a Simmons pull-release changer in a metal body. It's a bit heavy, but the tone is very good, and the action is smooth. Great for a beginner or intermediate ...

They don't have a steel, but John A's Little Palace has one of the best trad country bands in town, IMO. It's out by Shopryland, close to the Ernest Tubb Theater. Sunday night is jam night. Bring your ...

I was just up at Big Joe's Guitarworks in Madison, TN. They've got a D-10 ZB there for sale. Don't remember what they were asking for it ($2850? $2350? not sure) and I don't know what kind of conditio ...

Hey, Randy! You were in Nashville this weekend and didn't call me? Consarn it! What's wrong with you? If you don't have my number, PM me and I'll get it to you.

Next time, you get to buy the beer!

Keith, I think I saw the one you bought at a musician's swap meet here in Nashville a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't set up, but from what I could tell, it looked a lot like the pics Rick posted. I sn ...

I bought a guitar from Bob through this forum. It has the Genesis undercarriage, although the body was made by someone else (not sure who). It's all metal.

When I was down in San Antone last Feb., I heard some steeler. . . I think his name was Randy Gilliam. Pretty good picker, as I remember.

Yeah, I think a George L comes standard on a Simmons.

This particular guitar has the Simmons pull-release undercarriage, but the body was made my some one else. It's all metal! I'm tempted to make ...

Calvin, I'm not sure what's on it. It's not a Bill Lawrence. It is a single coil, not too terribly hot, but with a good twangy yet sweet sound.
