Greetings from Arkansas!!!

Greetings. I have come to this site seeking knowledge about a couple of necks that I have acquired recently. I had the honor of meeting a man by the name of Shorty Robbins that worked with Leo both at Fender and at G&L. Although I only met him twice, he and my brother in law were very close in Branson MO and played quite a bit together. Shorty passed away a while back and I had the chance to buy a couple of his necks. One is a broadcaster, the other, I have no clue as to what it is. I will be posting pics soon in the appropriate forums and hope I can get some answers from folks more learned than I in the mysteries of Leo. Thank you in advance.

Welcome,
Looking forward to pics, are you going to search out some G&L bodies for them?

I found this vid on youtube...Shorty is playing a Broadcaster.

photo of him with George Fullerton.

And that is my brother in law with him singing a song he doesn't know. LOL. Deal I made with my wife was to sell the necks and keep some other stuff. Really like the Broadcaster neck though......
