| Hey, Im thinking about a single E-9 neck thats works/sounds good but light/easy to transport and setup. I play 6 string and starting PSG and with one of the bands I'm working with I need to switch back and forth. Any range of suggestions? |

The Stage One is fantastic value for the money, Sounds great, light and easy to move around. You can get slight modificactions on the standard copedent if you speak to Doug as well.

Howard Palmer has an Excel for sale right now, which is a light steel.

These also have tons of other plusses going for them, in my opinion. I have also purchased a pedal steel guitar from Howard and the transaction was flawless. Good guy for sure. Thanks, steve t |

If you have the cash, isn't one of those Carbon Fiber MSAs on the lighter side?
Carpsteels and Legends are pretty light too if you're on a tight budget... |

A Stage One from Doug Ernst in Branson, Mo. would get my vote. Very reliable, and has great tone.
