| Anyone want to even factor a guess as to who manufactured this? Is it cobbled together from various parts from other manufacturers? |

Vertical has round cross shaft, others are square, so vertical would appear to be a late addition. Does not appear to have aluminum siderails. What wood is used? Has a small knot/birdseye on the deck. Pine?
I can't imagine anyone making a psg without a metal or carbon fiber frame since the use of square rods. Sure looks homemade. |

Uhh, really?? I do have a EMCI and a GFI with a aluminum frames but I also have a bunch of other PSGs, some quite modern and none of them have either a metal or carbon fiber frame other than the above. Come to the convention in St Louie this year and check them out Rich.
Back to the poster's question, I have never heard of one of these but it is entirely possible that this was an attempt to become a builder that never gained much momentum. Doesn't look too bad though as long as you didn't pay big bucks for it. |

| Guess I assumed wrong. Probably because of my puzzlement over the wood. There certainly are stiff enough woods, but it doesn't look to me like maple, and not as thick as I would think needed, even if it is maple. |
