Since I didn't get to go to St.Louis this year, I'm wondering if any of your little shops there in your home town might have any little old Harmony or Oahu amps, 8 inch Rola speakers w/6 or 7 tubes? Just wondering....
I need one to get me out of the depression of missing St.Louis and all the guys that did get to attend.

I got a new steel bar from John and Ann Fabian of Carter Steel Guitars. This bar is different from other bars, because it has grooves on it. I got this bar since my standard bar slides around. This bar stays on the strings without sliding around and since I have cerebral palsy, this bar helps me to fret the strings on the steel easier and I can grip the bar tighter because of the grooves.

So that was you David who bought all the Ricky Davis C6 sets so there was none left over

? At least I got me a bunch of spares of the gauges that break most... Then a set of quality cords from Ed Fulawka since the ones I´ve been using until now really stink, a couple of Dunlop "Mini" finger picks from Scotty´s, Neil Flanz´E9 book and C6 chord dictionary, some CD´s: Lloyd´s (of course), Tom Brumley´s "Tom Cattin`" complete w/rhythm tracks and tab, and two rather obscure ones, again from Fulawka: The Bebop Cowboys, some great Western Swing with a rendition of "Almost To Tulsa" that sounds better than the original - wow! and the Mc Coy Brothers who performed some fine sets in that room. Wish I could have bought that black ShoBud SuperPro that was in Scotty´s display room - you know sometimes you come across a guitar that seems to say "Hello" the first time you sit down at it and that one was one of those...
