Hey All!
Although its been posted before, I needed to makes some changes to the line, as the first one was the prototype. Here is the first official release. This one is ready to go, and two others in the spray booth (one black and one ivory). All of them are 6 stringers.
Audio clips to follow.
Specs are:
- Hard Rock Maple body w/ carbon beam in the center
- 23" Scale
- Lollar Supro pickup
- 1/2" thick Aluminum bridge, recessed into the body and bolted on through the rear
- Gotoh 21:1 tuners
- Camel Shin Bone nut
- Celluloid Headstock/control cover/fingerboard
- Light without power position markers
- Momentary push button kill switch with mini toggle for "Boo Wah" function or stutter function
- Felt lined bar holder hole
- Stainless steel legs and aluminum inserts by Don at BSG
- Custom Walker built case
- Leg pouch and dust cover by Sharp Covers
Vist my website and blog for information about the development and more!

I've been regularly commenting on FB and I'll do so here. Spectacular work. Great job. As I said there, that fretboard looks like a Tiffany job.
Good luck to you.

Welcome Scott Walker from GeorgeBoards Steel Guitars.
I love it that you have entered into the "Steel Guitar" with your Functional Art.
For the type of sound the Cooder-Caster Pickups create --- It is The Best One.
The over all market needed a 10 star builder, -- you are clearly on a roll.
I am glad to offer a link exchange for your web page on my sites if would like it.
Congratulations Best Regards - George Mr.Boards Piburn |
