Wow, that's a good looking guitar. Did you order it without the Carter Name on the front apron? I like the natural wood finish on steel guitars.
Congratulations on the new guitar, and on becoming a Forum member. Great place to be for steel players!

Thanks for the compliments. I did order it without the logo. It was their quilted maple lacquer with the Most Requested Tuning (8x5). It is really a work of art and has a great warm tone. I brought it out for its first gig last weekend and the rest of the band was very impressed.

Why do you not have the little cheesy Carter logo on it? I forgot to mention I have a Carter and it is a jamb up ax.

Welcome aboard, from Texas.

That is one nice axe you have there. I have a Carter, too. But it is mica, not lacquer. I would worry too much about lacquer being dinged.

I also like how you used that photo from Winnie Winston's book as your avatar.

I'm sure the first few dings will be the hardest. Hopefully its me that does it and not the bass player. That would be hard to forgive.

That is a great looking guitar. I also play a Carter and think that black is best but I must admit, I stared at the photos for quite awhile. I also don't care for the Carter logo. It meminds me of the old days when there was Carter gasoline and the logo looked very similar. I am surprised that they would put a guitar out there without the logo though. Anyway, it is a great looking guitar and the Carter is a fine instrument, love mine.

Isacc,
I just realized that your avatar is Earl Sexton! I bought my first steel guitar from him at Edgewood, Md in circa 1980. That picture is from Winnies book..

Oh yeah... It was a green lacquer,S12 extended E9 MSA Vintage XL, 5x4. I also bought a shobud amp with a JBL in it. I was so thrilled with the Steel that I phoned MSA and talked to Maurice Anderson about it:)
