Guitar arrived early this morning! (12/7)No problem putting legs on and pedal rods as well. Sure sounds good with the few chords I've done. I've been taking lessons via Skype on Lap Steel(Thanks, John Ely!!!)and got interested in the pedal steel thanks to Troy and his lessons. So now have lap and pedal to learn. And I've been ignoring my Hammond organ and Roland BK-9 keyboard. The pedal steel was custom made for me - normal for Jimmie is 25" floor to underside of guitar; mine is 1.5" taller and fits great! Mahogany wood, so looks just like the guitar Troy has on his video - minus the padded rest. I'm very pleased.

OK, here's the unwritten rule... if you get a new guitar, we needs PICTURES!
