Thanks for the information Mike...I'll put a Check in the mail tomorrow. I'm sure Carolyn can use some help.

Bryan and I have been friends for over 50 years. He put together ever Emmons I ever bought from Ron.

Every time I'd tell him about going to Nashville he'd always ask if I'd seen "ole Sweeney" while there.

I'm sure all that knew Bryan will miss him.
May he rest in Peace.

Anna and I send our prayers out to Bryan & Carolin and the family. God rest Bryan and let him play Steel Guitar with all the great Steel Guitar players that are there in heaven.Those that never met Bryan missed out on meeting a great person. I have been at many Steel Guitar Jams with the MASGA and Bryan was there and we always talked and had a good time. I will miss Bryan very much.

Bryan built my first Emmons guitar in '81. He offered a push pull or all pull but recommended the push pull and I am so glad he did. It has been and still is my all time favorite guitar. He was a great friend who I talked with several times in the last few years. I guess I would consider him my mentor in working on push pull guitars. I will certainly miss him, this is sad news.

Prayers going out to Bryan's family. He will be sorely missed by the steel guitar community. He was always ready with words of encouragement when I was rebuilding a guitar. He was another of Dicken's great steel pickers. Go rest high upon that mountain, you have payed your dues.
