Some of you may recall when Rick Peterson bought this guitar new, it was posted here on the Forum and he was a very proud man to say the least.
It was also posted here in a matter of a few months after he bought the Patriot, he was diagnosed with liver cancer. You may recall me asking for prayers for Rick at that time.
The Doctor's recently found more cancer in his liver and on top of that he now has developed neuropathy in his feet and hands as well.
Keeping in mind that Rick was not a steel guitar player, not even a guitar player, and just had a burning desire to learn. Sadly he has lost that desire.
Rick told me he sat at this guitar (4) times in all, so the guitar is basicly still new, but it has been purchased and has to be considered used.
I'm selling the Patriot for $2750.00 plus actual shipping cost.
If interested please contact me directly, thanks for looking and listening folks.

Fred, this is very sad news about Rick. Our prayers will be with him and the family. I'm sure this guitar will sell quickly for the family. It sure is a beauty, and Fred's guitars play and sound great. Larry _________________ Mullen G2 SD10 3 & 5 The Eagle

Larry thanks buddy for those words.
Dwight actually Rick needed the money quick, for medical bills and I gave Rick the money.
So, I'm trying to find the Patriot a loving home that will appreciate its beauty and representation of our colors. God bless America.
The Patriot is a one of a kind piece of art that most likely will never be repeated.
You couldn't ask for a better playing guitar, and the tone is out of this world. _________________ Email: azpedalman@gmail.com

Fred,
you are a class gentleman. I saw that guitar at the SWSGA if memory serves me right. It was a sight for sore eyes, georgous machine. Sorry to hear this about Rick. _________________ Bill Bailey

Folks I've gotten several responces on this guitar, nothing solid yet and its still for sale.
If it don't sell before, I'll be taking it with me to the Branson Show and the Kansas City Show.
Out of 1550 plus people that have looked at this guitar, if anything its been seen around the world.
, and that's a good thing. _________________ Email: azpedalman@gmail.com

The Patriot has been SOLD, to a very nice Gentleman by the name of Clark Doughty up in Kansas City Missouri.
Clark is a retired military man and is a very deserving man to pair up with the Patriot. God bless you Clark.
b0b please close this one up.
