After reading the topic on MCI/EMCI steels with welded frames,it brings to my attention that Mullen steels has some welds on its frame{endplates}if memory seves correct. Someone correct me if I stand in the wrong. |

You are wrong Kenny, Welding Myrick never player a Mullensssssssssssssss.(oh, thats right, there is no "S" in Mullen(s). Mullen never made a "welded frame guitar", The leg sockets were welded in the end castings but that doesn't make it a welded frame guitar, any more than painting your Chevy pickup red will make it a Fararri, or name-ing your dog "spot" will make him a dalmation.
This incredible tesimonial came from the fertile mind of "ask Mr. Bob", [This message was edited by BobbeSeymour on 20 April 2002 at 10:38 PM.] |

GFI Ultra's have a welded frame. Go to Gene's web site and read about how they build that Ultra. You will find out why there is "0" cab. drop. |

Everyone has a little fertilizer on the brain. It's having a high percentage of "weed killer" content that allows you to stay focused. ![](http://steelguitarforum.com/smile.gif) |

Hi Bobbe, I guess that's what I meant,that the Mullen steel has a couple welds on the end plates around the leg sockets. The whole guitar doesn't have a complete welded frame. Thanks for your input. |
