Well, my last business venture didn't do so well. Seems that most folks didn't care to have their guitars smoked black so they would sound better, so I had to close that business, Sigh!!!. But, seriously folks, I have begun making seats here in almost the middle of Montana and I have a website:www.kcseatsandcases.com listed here in the index on the forum. It is a work in progress, so the pictures will change and some of the details have changed from the original pictures as well. I have been involved in woodworking most of my life, cabinetry etc. So take a look and contact me if you have questions. Thanks |

Kelly,
I looked at your website, and these are damn nice looking seats. You should have no problem marketing these. Best Wishes! |

Thanks for the kind words, Dennis. I believe I have a quality product made as durable as the rest of the folks in the business, believe me, I've looked at most of them over the years at the various conventions and jamborees and there are some very nice seats out there. Plus I've talked to most of those folks over the years and they are just regular folks. That's what I like about this steel guitar community. |

I may have you build me a custom seat soon, Kelly. Be sure to get your products to as many shows as possible. Best of luck to you! |

Brother Thom, Thank you for your encouraging words, I was truly saddened to hear about your medical difficulties, here's trusting our Lord will see you through another difficulty in your life. I too enjoyed our time in Spokane and the "tips" you gave me about seats. God Bless. Kelly |

Hey Jim, that's interesting because originally I was going to call my company Basic Steel Guitar seats, or BSG seats, but Fred Burrows had the BSG abbreviation so I couldn't do that one either. Go Figure. |
