I think there is some confusion because the provide.net guy has an illustration where he labels a guitar that looks very similar to the one in the ebay listing as a Combo 800. but if you look at the specs he has listed 1 pickup = 600, 2 pickup = 800 and the 650 and 850 have the increased bass side cutaway (as seen on the 850 WTR originally posted). so the caption for the illustration and the ebay seller must be wrong, it's a 600.




does anyone know what these switches do?

No,it is an 800. The 600 and 800 have the same body. The 600 has a single coil under the horse cover the 800 has 2 single coils. The switches one of those switches is probably a pickup selector,The other I am not sure.

oh weird. that is really crazy.

yes, now I see, the 600 has just one switch.

Bobby Nelson told me that he has started work on his new guitar model The "Prolocutor"



I think I got Bobby convinced that he should make a pink one.

Bobby Nelson sent some pics Prolocutor's in progress

"A prolocutor in Blonde. (a tad less yellow in person. More the color of heavy cream) This will have a black pick guard."



"A prolocutor in deep teal. In some light it looks almost like an emerald green. In other light it looks like this. VERY deep and rich color! With a gold pickguard it's really going to be striking!"



He is also working on a new batch of Coquettes and Socialites

Powder Blue Coquette
