Farris.

I would say approx $2050 to $2200.And when she's all done i will let you look under the hood.Ok??
She sounds like an Emmons.And plays real smooth.It just needs a little adjusting on the pedals.They are to high right now.And it's not completed on the knee-levers as you can see.

Ahoj Ronnie!

It is nice to read your recent posts on the Forum and best of luck in your new steel-production venture. The prototype looks great!

Are you playing with a band these days?

Groetjes,

Chris

Yes, that's me, Ronnie. Thanks again for the nice bar. I believe my name was laser-engraved, right?

Seems like years since I took the train to Zwolle to visit you ... but I guess it *has* been years!

I hope to get back to Old Europa soon. I live in the US, now, as you can see.

Shoot me an e mail, OK?

Met freindlijke (sp?) groeten,

Chris

Chris.

please keep that steel bar locked up well.You have got the only one i made this way.
"There is no other one like this"
People can say that there is but believe you me....You got the only one.
I have never seen anybody that could pull something like this off.
Your name is ingraved in the chromesteel but when you rub it with your finger you can't feel that it is ingraved.

I will drop you an e-mail soon Buddy...

no guitar will sounds like another, every guitar has is own tonal character,even the two same guitar brands.so it couldn't be sound as an emmons or zum or what ever.
you only can say it sounds better or worser or maybe different through your ears.

keep up building and playing!!!!

saying by well experienced sound engineer,

cor
