I just love the look of New Show Pro guitars!!! http://www.showprosteelguitars.com/index.html
Check how reasonable the guitars are priced, has anyone bought a played one for awhile? Do they play really well? Are they heavy or light in weight? _________________ MARLEN S10 with a Crate V50 with custom speakers .. Local Artist 💪💪 |

I've had mine since January and just love it . P_lays well stays in tune and the tone you couldn't ask for better. I hope you get the chance to try one. Many of the pro players are using the Show Pro and more coming on board. Terry |

I love mine so much that I'm having a second, exact duplicate made. It sounds great, plays great, looks great and stays in tune. Jeff and the whole gang at Show Pro are fantastic to work with and they're genuinely interested in making an instrument to meet their customer's needs and specifications. It's so great that there's a company like Show Pro around!

Your steel looks awsome, I love the black ..reminds me of the first super pro sho bud I ever played!
I am going to head down and visit there showroom / event center when they get it done, I can't wait to try out every guitar they have then place a order! I was looking at a Zum but out of my price range right now.
Jon you still going to keep your JCH steel? _________________ MARLEN S10 with a Crate V50 with custom speakers .. Local Artist 💪💪 |

Keith,
I'd like to echo what Jon said. I love mine, too. (#48 built in June '09.)
Everything about it is great!!! The fit, feel, lever and pedal response, tone, and, the look speaks for itself.
Jeff and Gloria and the fine folks at Show Pro keep you informed and involved in the process all the way. Super nice people !!
You'll be happy with your choice !!

I just walked back in from the GSGA show, heard several ShoPros being played, and they sounded great. Very nice looking guitars. I gotta go donate some blood... |

Keith, the JCH ain't going anywhere! That's a keeper fro sure… an incredible instrument. I had the Show Pro built so I could retire the JCH from the road… I consider it irreplaceable, particularly after Jimmie passed away. And I'll have the second one handy when the first one is on a truck going somewhere.
By the way, I played the Show Pro on the new Carrie Underwood record "Play On" on a song called "Quitter". It sounds sweeeeet! |
