Thomas -- if you posted a shot of the full guitar it might help. Looks very nice, but no shot showing the whole enchilada.

I need to do a little saving up but, I am interested.
Due to my disability I can't play a steel that ie straight across. i end up having yo prop it up at the very angle this guitar has. So i am interested. |

|
|
| Thomas, I can't quite understand the unique nature of this guitar from the pictures. Is it meant to be played with a strap? Perhaps another view of the whole guitar would help. |

I cant believe that this guitar is still unsold!!! These are growing increasingly rare!!! Especially the ten string naugahyde (however you spell it, lol) If I was working it would have been on its way to me a long time ago!!! I've had my Melobar for almost 17 years now and it sounds as good as it always has!!! If anyone has questions about the ten string or the tuning I use, please email me. I'll try to help you out. Also, you can string it up with less strings if you desire and recut the bridge and nut for wider spacings. Or better yet, see if Ted has any leftover parts and just have a spare set to swap out. The ten string spacing is the same as most pedal steels which is narrower than say a dobro or Fender strat. It takes a little getting used to, as does the angle you need to hold your right hand.
If you still have this available in a few months, I should have the money by then. Ill be watchin.
