Thanks Terry. Image Guess I should have replied that I got several emails from Dick with pictures showing his handiwork. He even bragged about his $0.25/hour wages! Image

I'm a proud owner of a Bethel Steel Guitar. It's a D10,9&9 curly wood maple, with a sunburst finnish. It's one of the most beautifull guitar's that I've ever seen.I bought the Bethel 2 years ago. If anyone was in Saint Louis then, you might of seen the guitar on display at the Bethel Steel Guitar booth.The Craftmanship on this guitar by Dick Miller is excellent!!! The tone is surperb!!! The action is Great!!!Great!!!Great!!! Real fast. Terry, and Dick, you have a winner here, so I'll place my bet on a Bethel.

I am also a proud owner of a Bethal steel.Mine is a formica model and is also a beautiful looking Guitar with 8x7. And I have agree, the tone is awsome along with action. I have a couple of other top name steels and the Bethal out preforms these steels hands down.I play in a couple of Shows here in Branson and I will carry my Bethal back and forth between the shows instead of useing the other steel.Thanks Dick and Terry, great work and craftsmanship. <FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Jerry Pansier on 29 July 2002 at 06:35 AM.]</p></FONT><FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Jerry Pansier on 29 July 2002 at 06:36 AM.]</p></FONT>
