Mullen and Zumsteel

Postby Ken Byng » Wed Oct 12, 2011 12:20 pm

I bought a Mullen Royal Precision D10 last week (red lacquer with metal necks). I have always regarded the Zumsteel guitar as being the best engineered guitar out there closely followed by the new MSA's. However, I have to say that the Mullen is really well put together and is up there with the Zumsteel. It plays really smoothly, and the levers have minimal travel. The Mullen single coil pickup too is very clean and defined. I have never considered buying a new Mullen, but the G2 could be on a future shopping list. So many great guitars out there and so little time to play them all. Sigh :D
Show Pro D10 (amber) 8 + 6, MSA Signature XL D10 (redburst) 9 + 6, Sho~Bud D10 (sunburst) Pro 111 8 + 6, Emmons D10 Push Pull - (black) 8+5, Zumsteel D10 (blue) 8 + 8, Hudson pedal resonator, 10 string lap steel. Telonics, Peavey & Webb amps,

I think it's fair to say that you can't really buy a bad steel these days. The old, bad ones have long since fallen apart and the newer ones just go on for ever.
