Made in Vancouver, BC by John Heard in the early 1980s. That one would have cost about $200 new. John intentionally built them cheap for new players to get a taste of pedal steel playing. If the player didn't like PSG, he wasn't out much money.

I started with a 3 and 1 version of that guitar. Building and repairing other PSGs was how John kept busy during retirement.
