Well, second. Bought both a pedal and lap steel on this very forum ca. 2013? But a painful ETS from the military and subsequent divorce caused me to sell it. Lawyer fees, new house etc.
There are guitars all over reverb but I trust y'all.
I'm a single dad of two young girls, army pension , so I ain't rich but I want something decent. 8 string preferred (I think) but I'm a rookie so a thing good, I reckon.
Thank y'all
V/R

Teddy, talk to Bob Allen at Melbert Guitars, he can do you a custom 8-string. Takes a while but worth the wait. If money's tight, ask about a blem or one where somebody cancelled their order. _________________ Long-time guitar player, now wrestling with lap steel. |

It's right up my alley! Spoke to him just now. Super nice gentleman. Going to put a deposit on a 8 string.
It'll be Christmas before it gets done, so any suggestions to hold me till then would be great! The rick I wanted sold yesterday.
Thanks again for the connect sir! , great guy! |
