Greetings. I've got a lefty Fessenden D-10 that I've had since 1994. Gigged out with a country band for 10 years. Complete with roller case. Excellent condition. Black in color. Let me know...

Thanks guys for the responses! Emmons it is!

Wondering if it's Emmons due to the tone and style at the time...This is THE SOUND when I think of pedal steel... Smile

Thanks-Gordon

Thank you!

Greetings! I've got a stripped machine head/tuner on my Fessy D-10 and don't know how to contact Jerry for repair help. Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you-Gordon Black

Ron, i've got a 1993 Fessenden D-10 that I'd sell. It's in great condition and comes with a case. Let me know if you're interested.

I've played my Beard upgraded Flinthill for about 5 years now, and I love it! It sounds (in my opinion) as good or better than alot of instruments costing 6 times as much. Paul set it up with a Quarte ...

I recently bought the MTB "Anthology" double album, and on the 2nd CD there is live concert footage of Toy playing steel on "Fire on the Mountain". Great stuff, highly recommended!

I always set up on stage left with my steel slanted facing slightly right. That way I can see the lead singer and guitar player at the same time. Helps when singing harmony and trading leads.

I've got a vertical lever on my D-10 Fessy, which loweres the 6th string G# to G. Could some of you experienced steelers please show me how to use it?
Thank you...

Heard a killer song the other day called "Women Keep Smashing Up My Cars", and did a search and found it was by Kent Rose. The song was done in vintage country/rockabilly style with great steel http: ...
