Hey guys I’m really happy to have just gotten my new BMI , it’s sounds and plays great . Really thankful to Dan Burnham and Don F from BMI for helping me get into such a nice guitar ! Also a huge thanks to Cowboy Eddie long, for showing me some tips and trips as I work through his tuning ! This guitar is built like a tank, nothing but quality! Thank you BMI 😊

BMIs are underestimated. They are well built, get great tone and play very well.

Scale length is 24 1/8” on standard BMI. Wonderful guitars and built in Arkansas!

Never owned a BMI personally, but have had several through here over the years.. Set up a few, some very minor repairs/adjustments, and had students that owned them.. I found them to be very well built, very nice playing, and wonderfully voiced pedal steel guitars..
That 12 string keyless is a honey.. Looks to be what , 8 and 5?,, 12 string E9/B6?... Not much you couldn't do with that beauty...bob

Nice guitar. I've not ever ordered a BMI simply because of the way the cross shafts were made. Hadn't looked at a BMI in quite a while but wouldn't have a problem buying one if the cross shafts were different. Red mica always looks good to.

Zane Beck was a mild mannered, very generous genius as well as a great player. His BMI design has remained unchanged.

I had one years ago, shouldn’t have sold it. The cross shafts were never an issue. It was well designed and manufactured. Very innovative.
