After having to miss out on a D10 Emmons from Billy Knowles due to home repairs, I scraped enough to get a new Mullen G2 SD-10......
She's loaded for bear....
I know some folks won't agree with the copedant or how loaded it is but it's the way I wanted it and the great folks at Mullen delivered. I'm one happy camper. |

Clark, that's a half stop. Using Sho-Bud barrel. RKR bellcrank moves along the shaft freely, hitting the barrel at D, continuing on to C#. The barrel screws and unscrews to tune D.
PS: utterly gorgeous, Dickie.

Clark, that is Mullen's "heavy duty", 2nd string half-stop that I ordered with it.
I've always had a problem "overshooting" the half-stop on string 2, so when Mike Mantey told me about this option, I told him to add it on.
So far I'm in love with it, I'm hitting the half-stop good, more than worth the money in my humble opinion.
Oops, sorry Lane, didn't see your post when I was typing Clark's reply. |

That is close to what I'll be playing when I grow up.

Hey Peter,
If I could just play HALF as good as you play I'd consider myself really "grown up." |
