Hey Bobbe S. What is up with this 2 book project we keep hearing about?
I am posting this here so that you all can express your interest in the history book project so that Bobbe will have some motivation to finish these books, while he is still young enough to remember all the good stories, and I am still young enough to remember how to read, and can still see the pictures! |

Not only would I be interested, if he wanted to self-publish I would put my money down up front, especially for a lavishly designed coffee table book in the style of the recent Bigsby story. Bobbe's knowledge and personal recollections deserve to be properly illustrated with great photography and layout. |

Another tease about the book in Bobbe's newsletter this week. So when is the book coming out? |

My only surprise is that Bobbe can condense his writings to anything less than four books. He has an amazing amount of historical knowledge on all things steel guitar.
I would love to see autobiographies on many of the top players, particularly Lloyd, Buddy and Curly. Sadly the market is too limited. _________________ Show Pro D10 - amber (8+6), MSA D10 Legend XL Signature - redburst (9+6), Sho-Bud Pro 111 Custom (8+6), Emmons black Push-Pull D10 (8+5), Zum D10 (8x8), Hudson pedal resonator.
