What an opportunity! To listen to and learn from that line up is amazing!

I have a homemade pack a seat that has folding aluminum legs and is carpeted. I bought a new compact seat and want to find this seat a good home. I will not ship the seat because packing it is too mu ...

I have to agree on the worth it part. The more time I spend playing it the better I like it!

Mine wasn't quite that bad. A few strokes with a sharp file did the trick. I'm going to go on the lookout for a second one for the c6 neck. It does give the e9th neck a sweet growl.

I got a great deal on a nice BL705 re-issue (thanks Jerry). What a job to put it in! First the mounting plate was too wide to fit into the neck. I had to use a mill file to cut the ends of the moun ...

I would have loved to have seen you!

Looks alot like my Carter. Bud Carter was a genius. If you look at all of the Pedal Steel Guitars and Companies that have his finger prints on them.

I've used quite a few DI boxes over the years. My favorites are Countryman and Radial. Definitely not the place you want to go cheap.

thinking about a trip to Greune Hall....looks like its close to where I'm staying.

Having the steel go directly in makes it easier for the PA guy to control the mix as well as the bleed through from stage volume. The problem is that alot of the tone from my sound comes from the spe ...

There is something about the large heavy bodies and pickups that give the ShoBud a sweetness to the tone that just can't be duplicated in modern pedal steel guitars. For a while my rig was a Pro II t ...

I used to use George L's stainless. I switched to GHS stainless super steels and they sound great. I recently tried George L's again and went right back to GHS Super Steels.

I am going to be in San Antonio for work Sept 30-Oct 4th. Being from Pennsylvania it's rare to go into a place that has good country let alone a steel guitar. I know we have quite a few member from ...

Tone Bars are also a personal thing. Most use a 7/8 or 1 inch bar. I have a 1 inch George L's bar but I use a bar the I made of 4140 round bar most often. The feel and intonation of the 1 inch versu ...

I think your sound with that Nashville 112 sounds great! I just put an EPS12c in my Nashville 112 and I think the stock speaker really holds back the sound. From the sound in your clip...I would pla ...

I have the upgraded opamps in mine as well as the mod reverb pan. Mine is not quite as warm as a twin with d120f jbls. Itâ€™s about half way in between the peavey honk and the jbl smooth warm s ...

I have a nasvhille 112 that I recently bought from another forum member. I put the Fox chips in and the mod reverb pan and it improved the amp. This morning I put an EPS12c in it and I can say that ...

I still use my old Goodrich L10k. Sounds great.

Wow...what a guitar!

I just bought a steel seat...one of the smaller ones. It's light and there's less space to fill with junk.

I sent you an email about the Nashville 112 and got a message back from Verizon this it was permanently undeliverable.

That's a long way from California!

I'm reviving this thread because there are a couple who aren't on here and are gone. I'm from Camp Hill PA...but we have lost Wayne Wallet and Fred Amendola. A big loss for PA Steelers.

I like the sound of the ones with the chrome corners and the 1502 in it. I had one modded with the tantalum caps and some other mods (it was a very early mod) and honestly we sat that amp next to a h ...
