Ernie,
Now, the anticipation is half the fun. You are long overdue for a new guitar. For my Zum, I had to wait 9 months. My Williams only took about three months, both were worth the wait and lots of fun when they arrived.
I played a Rains at a steel jam in Baxter Springs Kansas a few years ago. Nice guitar. David Hartley
sure sounds good playing his Rains. I know you'll
enjoy yours when it arrives.

Hi Ernie !
I have a new Rains since about 2 years now and never had problems with it. It broke no strings since I have it and it plays and sounds great.
I think, you will love it too. Want to see pics too, when you got it 
Kind regards... Thomas |

| My Rains has been with me for two years and I have yet to have the slightest problem out of it. Gary is a great guy and very supportive and halpful to do business with. His work is as clean as any out there. What configuration have you ordered? and Color? |

| I have had my Rains for several years with the 705 p/u and I will puit my tone up against any other brand. It is a fantastic steel and you will enjoy playing it. I'm sure you found out what a "jewel" Gary Carpenter is to deal with. Great person. |

I just dont know how you guys are able to buy new guitars. all I can say is it must be nice to be able to do such thing. I raked for a few years before I was able to buy my emmons and it was used then.

Ernie, real nice Rains you got there! I see it's The Hartley, so I guess that means you got David Hartley's copedent?
The Rains sounds great and you are dealing with a straight shooter, Gary Carpenter. He's a good guy!

Bent I play a Day set up I took my set up have the Franklin pedal,some off of Dave Hartley and a little Tommy White lol so we will see I have some new things to play with I know it sounds great and Gary sure is a nice guy to deal with and knows his bussiness about steel guitars.
I had this guitar about a month after I ordered it.The feel on the pedals are awsome.Now II have not had a new guitar since my 79 super pro that I will keep has also been a great guitar, |
