I got my first pedal steel less than a month ago (Zumsteel SD-10), and even though I am a beginner I decided to get a BJS bar. Torben Koch who guided me has used the same bar since the 70's. So thinking you may get very attached to what bar you start with I reckoned I'd get a quality one from the very start.
It arrived Saturday, and even though I have just started out, the BJS bar has a better tone and feel than the Dunlop 920 I got with the Zum. I didn't even expect another bar would make a lot of difference, but it does. |

Joe, the more you play it the more you will like that setup, it's always worked for me, and thanks to all for your kind words, and thanks for using the BJS Bars.
Be kind to your friends, they are precious.

Hi Graham,
I've got to figure out how to put the tuning U-12 on this forum and the Double ten setup also.
When I get in tonight I'll try and to send it, or I may have to attach it to an email to you.
Send me your email address and I'll send you the U-12 and DOuble Ten Copedent to you.

Hi Rodger, Ernie I tried to put my tuning form on here for all you guys to share but it's too big.
Maybe Joe knows how to put it on here, it's ok by me Joe if you want to put it on the forum for all to look at, or try.
