How about "They stole my steel guitar" by Jimmy Dickens.

I used to go hear him at a club in Niles CA called Niles country. He was a great picker. I never knew that he built the Rains guitar. We lost a good one.

I needed some of the small cotter clips for my Mullen and I asked Mickey to send me some and bill me. He sent them right away and no charge. I don't know many people that would do that for someone h ...

Pedal steel is the easiest instrument in the world to play badly.

I get drop when I press any pedal not associated with the 'B' {doesn't do it on knee levers}

I have noticeable drop on the 'B' string on my Mullen and I was told that it is rare for a Mullen to have drop. Is there anything I can do short of sending it back to the factory?

Need 2 floor pedals and the rods to install them. Could also use a owners manual.[/b]

Here are a few of my toys.

Laney Hicks song "A love like this" by Buddy Emmons. I played it for our wedding.

Haven't played the opery but I did play the Louisiana Hayride, the same one that Hank Williams and Elvis was on, for 2 years. I have to admit that it was a thrill.

I was fortunate enough to hear Barry when he was kicking it. He was one of my heroes but I never told him.

Thanks for the input. It's a shame that they're not more of them built. It's really a great guitar.

That's the one. It's sold now but not because I wanted to. I'd still like to find out more about it because it was such a great guitar. I wish I could have kept it.

It's under musical instruments/other/pedal steel guitar. I don't know why I'm having trouble uploading them here. I appreciate any help you can give me.

I'm not having any luck uploading the pictures. I must be stuck on stupid. You can see them on ebay. I was able to upload them there.

It didn't work. I'll try again.

Thanks Reece.
I couldn't find a serial number. I'll try to post a picture.http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/uploadpic.php

I have a custom MSA 14 string with a crossbar setup. I've never seen one like it except some that Zane Beck buit before he died. Does anyone know anything about it.
