Everything you need for a full set-up: Sierra Single 12-string Extended E-9th tuning with four floors and five knees in great working order. E raise, E lower left knee levers. Emmons ABC pedals 2,3,4, with the "zero" pedal on the far left. This model has the folding legs making set-up/tear-down a breeze, and they are height adjustable, too; I liked playing with the rear legs higher to "pitch" the steel slightly away. (I think this steel is a Sierra "Crown" Series?)
Please note the significant bar ding and big chomp a previous owner took out of the end plate; I imagine they just couldn't figure out a repair for the pick-up switches so just cut the whole thing out; then installed a checker-plate cover, which is why there are four screw holes. I can provide that plate, too, if you'd like to cover it again. Both these issues are cosmetic and certainly ugly; Mike at Steel Guitars Ohio set this instrument up and she plays very well. (He even discussed it here on The Forum to get ideas on repairs April 2023... Forum consensus at the time and mutual agreement was repairs weren't necessary.)
Goodrich passive volume pedal with instrument in, and two outs, for tuner and amp.
Peterson StroboPlus HD Strobe Tuner with original box and leg mount clamp.
Walker pack-a-seat folding seat with folding back rest in brown material with lots of divided storage inside. Even have an extra set of strings and a bunch of finger/thumb picks. Let me know if you'd like a bar, I have a few of those, too.
Turn-key studio/practice/schoolroom steel set-up that purists might find too ugly for the stage... but priced nicely for that "second rig" everyone needs. Okay, maybe "wants" is a better term?
I will deliver/meet anyone within 80 miles of Zip Code 44286 (except Canada) or you're welcome to come check it out and take it for a spin in my studio. I will also be in Chicago soon and Madison Wisconsin in a few months and can bring this whole thing along, as shipping might be pretty costly; the steel alone is probably around fifty pounds. This is my second Sierra and they are built like a tank, holds tune forever. It's been in my pet-free, smoke-free, conditioned space since I bought it almost three years ago.

Put some decorative chrome trim on it & forget it's there... It does NOT affect play, in any fashion, unless of course you have a bad alter-ego....

Mike you should see the Sierra I have. Black and Gold I believe it to be a Crown Universal, but I made it a Extend, Wasn't able to find a gold pedal or any parts.

Thanks, Charley! Yeah, all the issues noted are cosmetic only and I already have and will include the little checker-plate cover that someone crafted to make it look a bit nicer. Just never want to offer anything without full disclosure. Very nice playing steel and have had lots of interest already. I’ve priced it to compete with “student” steels while offering a real pro set-up. Love that left knee raise lever and also love how you can raise the rear legs to both tilt the strings away and afford more room for those of us with long legs.

Posted 19 Dec 2024 8:49 am Sierra , a beautiful instrument
|

If I wasn't old, I would have already bought your Guitar, since it is from the family of Finest Pedal Steel Guitars made. I would have taken the neck off & slapped a beautiful inlaid piece of burl up there, changed it to the Day Way, added my famous LK Raise lever & had it for sale... But I am old & don't have the time for such things...
Good Luck to you , the new owner doesn't know how LUCKY they are gonna be...
