Steinbergers, etc.



Well, it does appear that Gibson really has dropped the ball
regarding the Steinberger electrics.

Every once in a while you'll see a clean one on ebay and it
gets snapped up quickly - there's one now that looks great
but I'm hestitant to get involved in a bidding war.

I e-mailed the gang at Musicyo.com a while back and they had
said the interest level in real Steinies (not the Spirits) 
indicated that they would likely carry them once they were
back in production (when that will be only God and Henry J.
knows).

In the meantime, I spoke with John Erickson of Whoopgnash
(a great fusion trio and John is has two Steinies), and he
recommended I contact Moses Graphite since they made him a 
Baritone guitar to the tune of $3200 with Steinie style 
bridge and parts.  Nice.

If you can pay the freight that's one other option.

Or, contact Lorenzo German at Klein Electric Guitars to get
a Klein.  They're expensive whatever way you look at it (I
saw one on Ebay that was well in excess of $3000).

Sigh.

Someday I'm gonna get my Steinie.

Oh!  I hear you can loop really nicely with them.
