Congratulations on the write up!

Curt-Thanks for the post. A very interesting story on Del Mullen and how he started it all.

I used to own one and it played very smooth and stayed in tune very well. He and Dixie are real nice people....al

Thanks to Del & Dixie for a great job of building one of the highest quality steel guitars on the market today and being such wonderful people to work with when ordering a new guitar.

PS; Del,really enjoyed your new CD, don't miss this one folks I am sure you wil like it also.

Yup, Got 2 of em!!! Had my D-10 since 1992, and my SD-11 since 1997. Never a problem with either of them. Wonderful playing guitars with top notch mechanics and service to boot! Pretty darn good in the "looks" dept. if I may say so. Congrats Del & Dixie!!!! Love to see you all get some credit where credit is due!!!

I've got one of those fine guitars. Mine was purchased new from Billy Cooper's Music in 1995. The guitar still looks as good and plays as well as it did the day I bought it.

I bought my Mullen U12 through Herby Wallace and even though I am a "bedroom" player, the quality was the best. I only had to do a minor tuning touchup after the long journey from the factory. I needed an extra pedal "train" and Mike sent via special delivery.
Good people to work with!

Del and the gang built me a beautiful Rosewood Mica D-11 9 & 8 in 1991 and it still looks and sounds incredible. Del informed me in January that the company that made the Rosewood is out of business and can't get any more. I would love another new one but this is better than Timex, because it still keeps ticking. You can't wear them out-----too bad.

Everytime I sit behind my Mullen, I can't help but smile at how great these Steels are. Mine is a D-10 9X7 HWP. its more Guitar than I'd ever hope for. Thank you Del, Dixie and entire staff at Mullen. God Bless.

Dittos to all the posts. The Mullen family have been great friends to me.
In the eyes of an audience, one of the thrills (for me at least), is to walk on stage with a band and sitting down behind that shiny mysterious instrument that we call a pedal steel and hearing that thing make it's thunder. Thank you Mullen Guitar Co.

The guitars that we have been receiving from this company for stock are beyond what we ever expected in quality and finish. They just keep getting better, I'm just trying to figure out what color I want for myself.
Yes, I'm very happy with my new relationship with this company.
