How many times has this happend to any of you{ or is it just me? } you get another steel that played ok and sounded ok, BUT there was something that was not quite right about it,and you could not put your finger on what it was.I have just parted with a beautifull D10 Carter that i could not get on with,i don`t know why it was a beautifull steel but it just did not feel right ,so i took a very nice D10 SHO-BUD SUPER PRO in px,and could not be happier

,it feels right and sounds great.

Thats a lovely looking Sho Bud Jimmy, guess its all about personal feel hey mate. Nothing worse than buying a new steel,falling in love with it,only to find over the coming days months it just aint for you.Im sure a lot of us have been in that situation a few times over the years.
Best of luck with the new one.

That look like my old Bud, bought it in 1980. Put two new pick ups on it , a PF and a TW on the back. I had a lot of love for this guitar..

Yes John,it`s the same steel you had,and it is a real nice Bud in very good condition for it`s age ,plays great sounds superb,and looks great,As i said the Carter was a nice guitar,but i could not get used to it,i tried since last Oct but i gave up

Yes John thats how it felt with my Carter and the other Carter D10 i have had

,{ i should have learned my lesson }and it`s strange because i had a Carter UNI a few years ago and loved it

,it goes to show how the same make of steel can be so different.
