You are cordially invited

Doug Dietrich, Patty Phelps, and many other special guests in our interactive booth.
Al Brisco is scheduled to play the main stage on Saturday at 1:30 pm.
Come listen ~ come jam ~ play and test the Carters with BCT live!
Also, you are cordially invited to try out the latest innovation for pedal steel guitar:
the Alumitone pickup
developed by Lace in consultation with Carter Steel Guitars.
We believe you'll agree with the many folks who've tried it:
that the Alumitone is the greatest sounding pickup to show up in a long time 
And ... yes, they will be available for purchase at our booth.
You are also invited to come try out the new Peavey PowerSlides in our auxilary booth
(next to the stairs by our main booth booth).
We will have all 3 colors (black, burgundy, and white) available to see and try in our booth.
Carter celebrates its 2000th Carter PRO model ever built
with this stunningly beautiful inlay production!
And ... don't miss our numerous gorgeous LACQUER finishes:
Fender Sunburst Lacquer and our new GreenBurst Lacquer,
among several other breathtakingly lovely lacquer Carters we'll have there!
And . . . our D-10 Carter with Chrome Inset/Black mica front
which has a really snazzy look with the chromed Alumitone pickups.
Due to popular demand, we'll have this Chrome Inset/Black mica front in S-10, S-10DB and D-10 this year.
<I>We'll have a large variety of SHOW SPECIALS and Carters
-- come check them out!</I> </CENTER>

This is a great site for the Carter brand.
Bless you Ann for your invaluable help and advice to me way back when I was just making my first venture into the website swamp.....and John, you made the purchase of my first Carter easy with your help in the blindfold test of demonstrating your guitars, and Bud for your demonstration of how well the Carter's are made.
I will always remember the help and respect that all of the Carter team gave to me when I was buying my first Carter.

| I love my carter steel good tone,best for the price on the market,light weight,and easy to make changes on . Bud is a master builder. But that one with all the ugly fish and crabs and sea weed i am sure it sounds good.But i would hide it under a blanket . only play it when home alone. Too much for me.But thank to Carter they have some fine guitars you can afford. |

I'm sorry, but I have to agree with Bill - that aquarium on legs is unquestionably the ugliest steel I have ever seen in my entire life.  |

Geez guys lighten up. Remember steel guitar manufacturers, even the most prolific are only a few people doing the work, if they from time to time want to go out on a limb and do something wacky, especially something like this that takes a lot of thought and craftsmanship, well let them have at it. Don't you think after building 100's of black and chrome guitars you'd want to do something a little unusual?
I am not a Carter owner or player but they go to a lot of effort to put on a great display at the show and their booth is set up to allow people to play their guitars and they have lots of very attractive guitars to look at---I say two thumbs up John, Bud and Co!! |

I admired this "fishy" guitar up close. While the actual design is not my cup of tea for a steel guitar, the art work is fantastic! The detail work is one of a master of the craft of inlay. It is easy to see someone put their full heart into this work of art. I am thrilled I was able to see it for myself. Pictures don't really do it justice. I am very appreciative the Carter booth was there. It became a networking place for me. Thanks to all the Carter folks for being there!
P.S. I love my new powerslide! |

| Don't get upset, Jay, it's only my opinion, and that in itself usually puts me in the minority. Besides, I apologized to begin with, to those it might offend... |

I thought the "fish" guitar was gorgeous. I think more builders need to take some styling chances. Most PSGs are just too boring.
