I just saw this guitar at close hand at the Seymour emporium. Man, it has so much provinence. In my personal opinion, Chalker never sounded better than when he was behind this guitar. He recorded some great things with the ShoBud, and it is in remarkable condition, allowing for the fact that it was Curly's road guitar for quite a while.

According to Bobbe in this old post it was actually a Fender 1000....

What Bobbe is probably referring to in the photo is that the Sho~Bud he's leaning on is the one pictured on the album cover....

Hey, did anyone else notice the repeated inlay pattern of the Star of David? Is that a figment of my imagination or was Curly Jewish?

Of course Curly was Jewish! Like many other country music greats, Jay Dee Maness-evitz, Lloyd Green-berg, Tommy White-fish, and who can ever forget Tammy Whine-ette.

Another question. What year did Curly get an MSA. I think it was early 70's.

Charles
ROTFLMAO is the acronym for Rolling On The Floor Laughing My Arse Off.

The album cover steel has 11 pedals, but the one Bobbe has seems to have only 9? Did Curly remove them, or a later owner?

I met Curly in 1973 when he and MA did a show near Allentown, Pa... I asked him why he was playing an MSA instead of SB and he said the MSA was a better Steel and it recorded better. The crowd really loved the way Curly played, he was a real master and great showman. When Curly played everybody listened..what a wonderful musician.
