Doug Jernigan..."These steel guitar bars are very good. I have been using one for 12 years and the sustain is excellent".
Jerry Byrd...I find the BJS steel guitar bars to be of the highest quality and recommend them to anyone still trying to find a superior steel bar".
Buddy Emmons...Count me in. I've been using your bar for the most part since I first picked one up in St. Louis. It is as nicely contoured and finished as any I've seen, and you may feel free to quote me".
Jimmy Crawford..."The BJS Steel Guitar Bar allows me the beautiful, rich, full, long sustain that I have been looking for for years, and have finally found. The bar is one of the highest in quality and class, from the beautiful birthstone in the nose, thru the back cover plate in the back. It plays like silk, pretty as a diamond. A great amount of thought and skill has been put into this bar.--Classy, Billy, Keep up the great work".
John Hughey..."I think this is the finest bar I have ever used, "BAR none" - It is smooth, yet still has more sustain than any bar I have ever used. Don't change it.
Russ Hicks...I hope my new J.C.H. guitar is as nice as my new BJS bar".
Sonny Garrish..."Your steel guitar bar is a very precision made bar, it has a great feel in your hand and it has a great tone. The birthstone in the end of the bar gives a very personalized feeling to the bar and makes it a special piece of your equipment".
Jerry Brightman..."Bill, I would be most happy to endorse your fine bars. Without a doubt, it is the finest, most durable bar I have ever used. Any player not using one doesn't know what he is missing. The balance is just perfect! As you may or may not know, I own two steels. I use one set up at the studio for all my session work, the other for touring. I would sure appreciate another one (bar) so that I don't keep having to carry it with me all the time. I forgot it when I went to play with Herby and Thumbs, and boy did I miss it!".
Al Brisco, Canada..."The BJS tone bar is the best sounding bar I've ever encountered. It has such as smooth feel on the strings and gives you a tone unmatched by any other bar on the market. I use three models - 7/8" Birthstone, 7/8" Sitar, and the 1" Birthstone".
Del Mullen..."The BJS Steel Guitar Bars are without a doubt the finest available. I have been using one for 4 years and it shows absolutely no wear at all. Good quality bars are a must to bring out the best tone and to give it that edge and sustain. Remember, the better your equipment, the better you will sound".
Bill Stafford..."Your bars are superior in every way in comparison to ALL the others. I have always used a custom manufactured bar until I had the opportunity to use one of yours. It is superb! Would not be without it. P.S. They are the only kind I sell in my music store".
Buddie Hrabal..."It's almost like playing with no bar at all. It's great!"
Sara Jory, England..."I find it a great bar to use. It has a lovely tone and is very easy to handle. It is not too heavy and not too light and has a very smooth finish. I hope many steel guitarists will buy theses bars, as I find they are excellent".
