Jim Bob,
Mooney guitars are built by Tom Mooney,
Arlington Tenn. just N.E. of Memphis.
They are very well built, all very professional, unique changer and bell-cranks.
pristine fit and finish.
He builds to order,any set-ups added features,,, custom built to your taste.
I don't want to speak outta turn for Tom.
He's on the Forum, I'm sure he will respond when he see's this post.

| The Mooney pedal steel is one of the best kept secrets in the manufacture of steels. Tom is a master machinist who makes every part of the instrument and has incorporated a number of innovative features in the design. He diaplays his guitars at several of the shows (most recently at Chattanooga). Don't miss a chance to sit down to one and give it a try. You will be impressed. |

| Does Tom have a website for his steel guitars? Maybe he could post a picture on the forum. |
