I can't speak highly enough of the prompt and efficient service I got from Billy. He took care of everything, not only setting the guitar up just how I wanted it, but also conducting our transaction in a speedy and thorough manner. I had some serious time constraints and Billy made sure the guitar reached me with time to spare.

I can't believe it was only five days ago I saw it on the Forum - now it's set up in my music-room and it plays perfectly straight out of the box!

Jimmie's guitars are amazing. It's a solid as a rock and beautifully finished. The George-L pick-up sounds great - I like it better than the s/cs in my Emmons.

One happy steel player here.....

I saw that guitar, upside-down on a bench the other day, Roger.

Spent most of the day today with Billy, helping him set up an Emmons for a friend of ours. Had lunch with him. A day well spent.

A few comments:
- Congrats, Roger, on your fine JCH.
- This should be in all capital letters -- Billy Knowles is simply the best!
- Clyde, besides helping Billy set up that Emmons (I think it's the one I just bought from SGE), I hope you helped him celebrate his birthday a day early. Wish I could have been there.

Great guitar Roger. Bet she has great tone.

Billy Knowles is one of the really good guys on the PSG scene and one of the most knowledgeable.
