  • Absolutely gorgeous! I have always loved the cabinet work on these old Sho-Buds.

    Makes me wish I had my very first steel back home again, a Sho-Bud crossover D-10. I would have the undercarriage modded to reduce weight, add more changes, increase reliability, and also have every metal part polished. Too late to think about it now.

    I'm glad to see that thesewonderful guitars are making a comeback.

  • WOW! Thanks for posting this! Do you have to replace some parts or just polish the old ones up? Also, can you still find those decals? Such an amazing instrument!

  • Wonderful work and wonderful playing. All the very best.

  • Thanks Sean - you are very kind to say that. I really appreciate it.

    Ken

  • That is one beautiful guitar only surpassed by your playing Ken

    Awesome

  • Hello Ken,

    I was in the "British Steelies" club in the 80's--(That.s why your name is familiar). I bought my Sho-Bud from another Member . Nice to hear you playing.

    Best Wishes

  • Very nice. How did you get the parts underneath so shiny? I didn't know plain steel could that good! I have an old 'Professional' i'd like to clean up.

  • Thanks for the kind comments folks. The guitar is just being fine-tuned by Sho~Bud guru Ron Mawn.

    I will try to get around to do a live video on the guitar. 

  • Beautifully restored, but more than that very very very tasteful playing Ken. I love it when a musician has the self control not to go all beserk in the second half of a song .

    You played that with the exquisite taste that the song deserves.

  • STUNNING, JUST STUNNING! BOTH GUITAR & PLAYING. BOB A MASTER CRAFTSMAN & KEN A MASTER PLAYER, GREAT COMBINATION.

    Dave.
