For all you Fender Freeks.
Sorry I can't post the link but if you go to www.ebay.com.au
and search for Fender pedal steel you will find an original manual.Quite expensive but???By the way this is not mine and I am not connected in any way

Here's the link to it: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3708307482
the Forum's own premoderator and jester is the only one i know here on the Fo' that has a PS210.
quite expensive i reckon. now if 25 PS210s were made does that mean there were 25 manuals made?[This message was edited by b0b on 13 March 2004 at 04:17 PM.] |

That's really not a bad price ($65). Old Fender catalogs easily sell for that, and this bit of "memorabilia" is a lot rarer than any catalog they ever produced. With them producing less than 20 of these guitars, there can't be that many manuals around (though I find it hard to believe they would do less than 100 manuals in a printing run). Undoubtedly there were more printed than they needed, but they probably found their way into a dumpster shortly after Fender got out of the steel business. |

Hi CrowBear Schmitt:
Your posting says:
"The Forum's own premoderator and jester is the only one i know here on the Fo' that has a PS210. quite expensive i reckon. now if 25 PS210s were made does that mean there were 25 manuals made?"
Who of the Steel Guitar Forum "premoderators" owns a Fender PS-210?
I've had one now for several years (it was a fixer-upper bought on eBay) and I'm finally starting to "fix it up."
I would be interested in knowing the names of anyone that has this instrument. I used to have such a list but I'm afraid it's been lost over the years.
I belive only 15 of the guitars were made by Fender between 1970 and 1973.
As a consumer product, the Fender PS-210 was a dismal failure for that company.

Al, because of my sometimes "moderator impersonator" antics on the forum, Crowbear refers to me as the "pre-moderator."
Al and I had much discussion a few years back when I had won an ebay auction for a 210.
To this day, it is still ahead of it's time. |
