Feeling Nostalgic Today

Post by Jerry Roller »

Randy and Tommy on BMI brochure from around 1980. The BMI was build by one of the greatest men I have ever known in the steel guitar community. Mr. Zane Beck. And, of course, these are two of the best to ever play the pedal steel.

Had a blue single 10 in late 80's. sold it to band mate who played guitar with the Drifting cowboys for a time.Don Helms used it and loved it too. They are comfortable to play.

Hope you can read it. Especially the prices. Guitar purchased in 1958. Amp purchased in 1959.Sales agreement for the guitar shows 3 legs but it actually has 4 legs. Did about 5 outside gigs in its life and I quit playing about 1990 due to a paralyzed left arm. Amp case is brown tweed as is the Vibrolux amp.[/img] It's a beauty. Like mint.
