Hi All, I'm a new member, and soon to be owner of my first PSG. I'm pretty much settled on the Jackson Steel Psg's. I've narrowed it down between the "Blackjack Custom" and the "Xtreme". I'm wondering if any of you who have bought or played either would have any comments or suggestions that might be helpful to me making up my mind. I'm new to pedal steel but have been playing and recording music for more than 30 years. Anbodys comments will be much appreciated....Thanks

Doug,
Do a search for... A Jackson Blackjack Rave. You can get some comments there at least on the Blackjack.

Welcome Doug, from Missouri. I was going to suggest a Rittenberry but the Jackson will work out good for you. Good luck.
