Does anyone know the URL to get to the Derby website. It was under construction a good while back. Thanks.  |

If you cannot access the Derby site, try "allsteelguitar.com",which is Dana Flood and Jerry Brightman's site. They are a Derby dealer and a lot of pertinent information is posted there. |

Noooooo... this thread ain't gettin' by without me on here! 
There is no Derby site as state above.. Simply put, the late & great Rusty Hurse tried to get a site going but Uncle Charlie decided not. This was last year. All of the above posts by David & Gary are to the letter true.
So if you want to read the details the best site is as already stated: http://allsteelguitar.com/
I am dyed in the wool NUTS about my D-10 Derb.[This message was edited by Rex Thomas on 08 August 2004 at 12:36 PM.] |

Ditto! Call, or better yet, go visit Charlie in Brooks, KY. Great person and great steel. Don't sell yourself short. Make the effort to play one of the Derby's. You'll love it! I have been 100% satisfied with mine I picked up from Charlie in February, '04. Ohio shouldn't be that far of a drive. Brooks is just south of Louisville. |

Adding fuel to the fire:
For grins I looked it up & you're near Columbus, so yeah, hop on I-71, go straight to L'ville, get on I-65 south to the Brooks Rd. exit & they'll steer you in from there. He's VERY easy to find.
For me, that's about as good of an exit as you can get; Derby's on the west side of 65, Cracker Barrell's on the east. Not heaven, but VERY close.  Plus, there are a number of motels at that exit from which to choose.
Tim's right: Go visit. |

Try this site, apparently the home of Derby's European representative. Lots of Derby info! http://www.steeljj.com/derby/ Per Berner |

Thanks to all who replied. Maybe Gary Preston,and I can go down to Ky. to the Derby Co.,and check'm out. There's a fellow named Wayne Vickers who lives around Vanceburg Ky. who owns and plays a Derby with his family group called Solid Ground.
I looked at his,and it looks like a well built machine. Nice thick changer fingers.
