I've known Frank for many years, and he is pretty close to being a genius with steel guitars. Actually, he is a genius, but I can't tell him that or he will get a big head. _________________ Carter D10 8p/8k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup,Regal RD40 Dobro, Recording King Professional Dobro, NV400, NV112,Ibanez Gio guitar, Epiphone SG Special (open D slide guitar) .

His guitars are spectacular looking. Look underneath. It looks like fine medical instruments. What machining! _________________ To write with a broken pencil is pointless. |

Several of our best Northwest steelers play Infinity guitars and they often have to wipe other folks' drool off of them before they can play them when they show up at our jamborees |

I have the Infinity Universal, pedal action is a dream, Frank has a special changer he invented, uses rollers for smooth feel. Love this guitar.

If I didn't have a Frank Carter modded MCI (already way more instrument than I'm worthy of) I'd be even more sorely tempted to get an Infinity (which has many improvements over my MCI, as great as it is). There are never going to be a whole lot of Infinity's made. Frank is meticulous, building them one at a time, and I think they will be considered as special and desirable as some other limited numbered, investment quality instruments, such as Anapeg's, Klines, and maybe even Wraparound's. Consider this, at this point there were almost three times as many Wraps made as Infinity's. |

I have played this guitar (as best I can- Jim's copedant is quite different from mine) and I have to agree. It is spectacular.
I don't need and can't afford another steel, but if I had the bucks, I'd get one of these anyway. _________________ Please visit my web site and Soundcloud page and listen to the music posted there.

Randy, did you buy my D10 Zumsteel several years ago ?
I met a man in Fort Worth and sold it and your name sounds familiar...it was black. do you still have it and want to sell it back to me ? Sorry, if I have the wrong person. |
