8-string Teleratt

Several of you asked about a 8-string version of the Teleratt. We've got one on the hotsheet. Basically Stringmaster pickups in a Tele set up in a Teleratt frame. www.melobar.com

Would that be my double-8 Ted? The word is "breathless anticipation"!

Hi Wayne, No I wouldn't sell your guitar, this is a simple version of your Supersteel. Yours is just about out of the paint booth and ready for assembly, can't wait to hear that one together myself! By the way, you need to let me know if you want to meet Jeff when the Clint Black show is in town, that also goes for any other Melobar Family Members.

That's great, thanks Jeff. By the way, I need to talk you into ordering the outrigger attachment for your Teleratt(dobro size body that attaches to your lap steel so you can stand up and move with it), Shannon Farmer with "Ricochette" and Monte Good with "Neal McCoy" just ordered them and I didn't want you to think I was holding out on you if you saw them out on tour next month.

How is Clint's tour going?, looks like you're really busy.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Ted Smith on 21 June 2000 at 08:54 AM.]</p></FONT>
