Hello from George Mr.Boards - This is an update on our progress to bring to the market place a full line of professional steel guitars scales 22.5 - 24.5 - 26.

We have been making 8 String 22.5 scale lap steels and console steel guitars for a long time, this year we launched our new Made in The United States of America Console Series. This last week I finished up the production samples shown in the photos below.

These particular instruments are GeorgeBoard Kits for some supporting clients. Hope every one likes the photos -- thanks for looking.

This is our New 26" Long Scale - Set Up for Alumitone .

These are our New 24.5 Scales Production Samples (in the For Sale Section)
