Hi all, I normally hang out in the pedal steel forum so this is my 1st post with all you steelers without pedals
Couple weeks ago I bought an 8 string home built pedal steel I wasn't at all happy with, so decided to convert it into a C6 console steel. Just finished the conversion and am really happy with the result so wanted to share a few pix. The finish is what I call my "space nebula burst" and comes from off the shelf Home Depot spray can enamel (after a thorough sanding and nice coat of primer of course). The one thing I loved on the original was the musical note fretboard so I was sure to keep that protected and intact.
This plays just fantastic in it's new role as a steel and is light enough to be comfortable as either a console or a lap. Here it is
