My new Justice Pro Lite arrived last week, shipped from Fred's shop in Arizona to the Southern Coast of Maine, box looked like it's was shipped from next door, thank you FedEx Ground.
Can't say enough about Fred's attention to detail and customer service, I got more than expected and the instrument sounds sweet. Now all I need is to get my fingers, hands, knees and feet working together and make some music.
Thanks again Fred,
Bruce

Congrats! You scored a world class horn. My Emmons P/P hasn't been out of the case since I got my Justice Pro-Lite. I went to TSGA Jubilee in Irving and played pretty much every steel in the place. Fred's attention to detail and personal customer service sealed the deal for me. Great guitar, great guy. _________________ Justice Pro Lite 3x5.

Congratulations on your new Justice.
Would like to have one myself and though the last thing I need is yet another PSG, I'm seriously considering one with the two tone split front for myself right now.
I've seen nothing but great posts about Fred's guitars and the man himself.
Not to mention the light weight with an older bad back.
Now I know about that T shirt, may just close the deal!
I wonder if he'd toss in a hat too?

Len Armalal has one just like the one I'd want!
But 4&5....
Just need to take care of a few other expenses first.
Best wishes,

Posted 17 May 2017 1:12 pm The baseball cap
|

The baseball cap is cool, but now I got one from Telonics when my Lady went there during a visit to Arizona to pick up my new pick up, pun intended.
Usually don't ware them, but the Telonics one is very nice and no plastic strap.
Got my new Mullen less than a month ago and a used Promat two months back, but really would like a Pro Lite too.
The Mullen is a little over the 50lbs airline limit for when I travel though if they hassle I'd put the legs into my baggage.
The Promat is over 70lbs so it will stay home.
I think the Pro Lite comes in about 40lbs in the case so would be nice to a bad back. _________________ Inlaid Star Guitar 2006 by Mark Giles. SD-10 4+5 in E9th; http://luthiersupply.com/instrument-gallery.html

Thanks Fred,
That's about what I thought the extra pedal & knee would do.
Still fine for airline travel, and good for my back too until there are all graphite body PSG's.
I decided with the new Mullen I really have enough bling for a guy of 69 years...
Have kind of settled on this color combination or something close to it as still real nice and stand out too.
But with the 4&5 combination. May want a 6th knee (One front and one back) but need to find someone with that so I can try it first to see how it feels first. They look like maybe hard to use?
Also need to take care of a couple of large $$$ obligations and an upcoming surgery, both settled in the next couple of months.
Depending on business income I expect to send the deposit soon.
Will call you to discuss a couple of things about the guitar.
Best wishes,
Andy
Plenty of bling here;
