This is awesome dale I was honored to build you an awesome steel, when I bought the company I made agreement with Gary that he would give the final go ahead on all the guitars that I build. I’m very blessed Gary gave me the opportunity to build these awesome guitars and selling me the company. Dean Holman really loves his new one aswell.

Thank you Gentlemen... This was pretty exciting for me, both Gary and later Derek were great. I was in contact with Derek every step of the way. Good people, great guitar.

First class in every department! Nice to see Jimmie's fretboards, too. Is that an option or are they using those on all their guitars?

Thanks Roger... As far as I know they are Standard ... Both of mine have them, and everyone I've seen have them except for maybe one, and I think that was a special with Emmon's Fretboard. Gary and Jimmy were great friends, think it's a bit of a tribute to Jimmy.

And, Thank you Don, I appreciate that.

Congratulations Dale, that is an amazing guitar. I can't believe how clean the undercarriage is, what with it being 9 and 9.

Derek, heck of a job!

Oh yeah, love What's New.

Dale; sounds great and looks like a solid build and amazing guitar, how do you decide which of your grapes to take your wrath out on? Looks good on you!
I thought Nashville was the roughest, but I know I’ve said the same about them all.
