The owner of this guitar said to reduce the price to $1650.00. It's a good sounding Sho-Bud.

Kevin,
The Sho~Bud, which is a "Professional" model, has the rack & barrel undercarriage, which is actually an infinite raise/lower system. You can put as many raises or lowers as you want. It's an older system, but one of the most flexible in terms of number of changes that can be added.

Are you open to offers on this Sho-Bud? Pictures appear to show a guitar in good condition. What is the approx. year this guitar was made? Any additional information would be appreciated. Thanks!

Dennis, "The Professionals" were made from late '69 into '74. Considering the color is LDG sort of green, I'd guess this guitar to be '73-'74, because '73 was when the LDG came out in the "green" color, though the color may have been earlier issue, it seemed to become popular as the LDG became popular. (green for Lloyd Green?) Someone correct me if they have closer acurracy, please.

Thank you James for the information. You are very knowledgable about this guitar. I am amazed with the caliber of people on this forum. They are helpful, courteous and just all around good Joe's. Steel players are a breed of their own that other civilization should take a lesson from!

Dennis, Sorry to keep you waiting, just returned from the Dallas Show. As best I know, James is correct with his response, but there is now a sale pending on this guitar. I'll contact you if the buyer backs out. Thanks.
