G’day all, I’m interested in getting into pedal steel and have found one for sale. The add says it’s missing the cable for the main pedal. Are these easy to find?
It’d be good to know before I consider buying it.
It’s listed at$1500 Au so not sure if that’s reasonable.
Any help much appreciated.
Regards
Chris

That’s the least desirable of the Mavericks, which are the least desirable ShoBud. The Oz market may be a little tough, though.

I’d try to lean on one of the other forum members “down under” for a little guidance.

That's way too high a price, especially without a main pedal.

You are welcome, Chris. I'd say maximum of $500 USD for a Maverick like that, with everything working.

Chris, keep an eye out for a Zum Stage One or an Encore. Ideal for starting out - Cheers

Chris, I did see on Facebook someone was selling a GFI single 10 in Brunswick for what looked like a very reasonable price. Do a search for pedal steel on Facebook marketplace. I’m not sure if you’re in Melbourne, so if you’re not, be sure to centre your search in Melbourne.
