I wanted to show off this unique award I received from
from the Cove Country Opry, of which I am a member of the Opry band. It was done by a friend of the Opry, Gary McIntosh. It took him three months.
I have seen clocks in guitars, trains, planes etc, but
no steel guitars. I think it is really well done.

Thanks for the comments, No, it does not work , the p/u
is a block of Ebony, as well the fretboard. rest is maple, the hand built tuners do work. Not bad for a Banjo player. Ha! |
