This guitar infected me with the steel guitar disease! Lol
I'm now looking at another steel and would like to sell this one. Can someone give me a ballpark price on what I should ask for it?

Rusler S10 3x2 (second lever was added)

Thanks for your help!

Rusler student model.. Depends on how fast you want it sold. Cheaper sells faster.. You might get $1000-1100 if you want to wait I suppose, but if you want quick money?- I dunno, maybe $800-850.. It doesn't have the name recognition of say a ShoBud.. There are blockheads out there spending $1000 on a Maverick because it has a ShoBud sticker on it...

If I had your guitar I would start at $1000 or BO,and see where that goes. You can always lower it as needed.. It would sell very quickly at a price of around $800 or less .. bob

Those are the coolest fret markers I think I've seen on a Pedal Steel.

My first steel was almost exactly like that, but the fret markers were roses, the pickup was white, the sticker on the front was gone and I think it was 3 and 3. It was in a little better shape but that was about 35 years ago.

I've had and sold 3 of those things. Had to reinforce my floor at one point. Very Happy
None of them brought a $1000.00

Fred, my back was still good back then but that guitar & those Nashville & Vegas 400’s are prolly what’s wrong with it now.

Can you change the copedent on these (at all or easily?) Is it a pull-release changer?

So much style!

I didn't have mine a long time and didn't know much about what I was doing, but to the best of recollection it was an all pull changer and I think the mechanics were similar to the MSAs of that time. I think you could change copedents fairly easy. I bet Fred remembers better as I think they were built in Arizona.
