[J. Hayes]

International Steel Guitar Convention in September of 1998 and hung out with him for a couple of days. He's definately a very hot player and on top of that he's a super guy to boot. The 6 lever unit he had in St. Louis was on a Telecaster. He's really got it down pat when it comes to operating those levers and has become a master of it.

I've been using Bigsby Palm Pedals since they came out and currently have them on an old Les Paul, an Epiphone Sheraton, and an Epiphone Casino. I was turned on to them by an old friend in LA name Al Bruno who had one of Boomer's prototypes.

Boomer has some CD's out which are very good, I especially like his "Solo guitar" one which has a great version of "Mystery Train" with just him alone, no band or other instruments on it. He also sent me a copy of a promo CD he had when he was working with his own trio. He was the featured vocalist which just goes to show you that he is a talented dude and not just on guitar. A very well rounded musician to say the least....JH in Va.
