Howdy all,
Last summer I acquired a George Boards 8 string lap steel that was autographed by a few different people. Freddie Roulette, Charlie Wallace, Mike Johnson, but there is one autograph that I can't find any information on. Slippery John. I love the name, I would love to know who he is though. Does anyone know?
Slippery John?

Re: Slippery John?
Thanks John! That makes sense, the guitar came out of that area. Mystery solved!
