For sale is Marlen double neck pedal steel. This is a very solid guitar with good tone. Emmons setup on pedals. Half stop drop you on E9 second string. See photo of copendents. The pedal rods do not appear to be proper for this guitar. Hook at top end is too small in diameter and pedals will occasionally and slip out. I believe a set of 8 ShoBud style pedal rods would fix this issue. I have decided to go back to an Emmons p/p😊so this has got to go. Please let me know if you have any questions. Buyer to pay shipping
Thanks

Those are the correct pedal rods. Just need to replace the missing nylon grommets where the rod hooks on. Great guitar and somebody is going to have a Merry Christmas!

| I actually was trying to find some original nylon bushings but the people I talked to didn’t have any info. Are these readily available? I did pick some up at the hardware store but they didn’t work well. They fell out after a few setup/ tear downs |

Richard, are you in luck. First of all, if I had the funds, That Marlen would be coming home... LITERALLY!
And now for the rest of the story... I bought that guitar used and refurbished it. And yes you do need bushings for the rod holes. I show them with a link as to where to buy them on the 3rd page of my original thread that details all the work I did to her.
AND YES, someone WILL get a very nice Christmas present!

Thanks Scott for the post, appreciate it. Very nice job on the tuning chart, I did hold on to that and it will go with the guitar.
This is my first time posting on this site and it was brought to my attention I didn’t mention shipping costs!!!! I usually use eBay for sport car parts it it makes you choose shipping info to post. With that said I was planning on buyer paying for shipping. This cost is quite it bit less then I paid, I like to give good deals when I sell things😊😊. I sold my zumsteel a few years back when I decided to “retire†from playing for half of what it was worth. The guy that bought was REALLY HAPPY.
Thanks
