I belive Mike Black has Tom Morrell's T-10 and Chas Smith has another one-I don't believe either one has pedals but Morrell's may have had some-I'm pretty sure both have (optional) wood necks |

Tom's guitar was originally a non pedal, PA added pedals on it later.
Mack Thomas' monster guitar is a T10 w/ 15 pedals and 38 changes:

It is not a triple, but here is a D-10 I have, all original from March 1959.

No one knows for sure; it wasn't built for Tom, even he didn't know who's guitar it originally was. Tom probably changed the set up at some point to suit him and finally used it without pedals and strung up only two necks. |

i thought it was built as a nonpedal by paul bigsby and the pedals were added later so no one knows how many pedals paul added. |

Thanks for posting the Thomas guitar pics Jussi, I havent seen that thing in 16 odd years.
Im now wondering if those keyheads are for real, or are they Johnny Frye mods?.
If they are Bigsby, thats three different patterns for 10 string keyheads.
Also the rollers? I wonder, maybe they could be the forerunner to the legendary Bob Meadows D12.

Lee, those keyheads are original, they're one continious piece with necks. I have the photos as much better resolution on my computer where you can clearly see that. Also, you can't tell from the photo I posted, but there are many keyhead changers on each neck, the cover plates that have the adjusting screws for the tuners are all missing though. PU covers are weird and the PU's themselves seem non Bigsby:
