I was lucky enough to meet Billy Knowles at his shop this week. A finer fellow you'll never meet. Billy took an old BMI that I was struggling with and changed it into a very playable guitar by reducing the height and making some pedal and lever tweaks. As good as all that was, I also learned a lot about steel playing, design, mechanics, etc. just from talking to him. He's a walking encyclopedia of steel! Only downside is, now I have no excuses for not playing the dang thing better!
Hard-core pros from all over look to Billy when they need work on their rigs, and now I know exactly why. With Billy, Roger and Steve on your team, you can't lose! _________________ Lots of stringy things, many of them slidey. |
