The guitar was part of his estate and belongs to his surviving spouse and mother of their 5 adult children Ernesteen Kleinow.
Anita Kleinow who is one of Sneaky and Ernesteens 2 daughters is hiding the steel guitar and other personal property of Pete's from her mother and siblings because she feels a sense of entitlement to all of his assets.
Tammy Kleinow who is the younger daughter says: "there is bad blood between the entire family and Anita due to her bad character and history of burning everyone she comes in contact with. Her actions don't surprise me,
she's been doing these things for a long time, she's a scam artist. She will scam you, rip you off and move on. I wrote her off a long time ago.
After backed into a corner regarding the where abouts of the property, Anita said she gave the guitar to "Jon McKinny", the producer of "The Gram Fest" for safe keeping Kleinow has attempted to contact Mr. McKinney through US mail, email, telephone messages and they have all been met with rude silence. "This has been going on for 6 months" she said, "if you have nothing to hide why not communicate with me".
Family members are seeking criminal and civil charges against Anita Kleinow. And possibly Jon McKinney
