John Finley passed away at 2.00am this morning.

He has been a friend all my steel playing life. He introduced me to steel guitar when I was 13. We all had ZB guitars in them days as he was a rep working for ZB guitars in the UK.

He died in the care home he has been in for many months now, in Mildenhall. He had vascular dementia and Alzheimer's.

RIP John.

Really sorry to see this. We collaborated to (try to) help a PSG builder many years ago.
John's speciality was ZB's if I remember right.
