I may, in fact, be nuts. However, I am screwed onto the right bolt... Jesus!

Go to Steel Guitars for sale and you will see a milbert 6 string for sale with pictures. My 8 string looks something like that, with a little different design.

There are a few out there. Here's a maple D-6-8 and a cherry D-6. Also a photo of my D-8 that I'm just starting to build. The two halves will be glued together after routing out the cavities.

I Agree Larry, I have a MELBERT 8 CONSOL, and just ordered a MELBERT 6, in maple. However I won't get it until October, Bob told me he is backed up on orders until October. I'm happy for him. He makes a great Guitar.

My 8 looks a lot like yours, but not two tome.
