Browsing on facebook and saw the news that Buddy Emmons had passed away. Never thought I would get so emotional but a legend has now gone. He was responsible for so much in the steel guitar world with not only its design but also his music. He will be greatly missed.
Love you Buddy - We will never forget you.

I am stunned at the news of Buddys passing. The Name and the music of "The Big E" will live forever.
Rest In Peace Mr.Emmons.
