I am new to the forum and am looking to buy my first pedal steel and have it shipped to Australia.
I have been considering Mullen's Royal Precision or G2 and have been recommended Show Pro's "The Lloyd Green" which I really like and had a good chat with Jeff yesterday. Looking for some feedback on the above or any others that I should be looking at. Just keen to make the right choice. Thanks for your assistance. Dave |

Any one of those choices is an excellent instrument. Each could last your whole life.
Can’t go wrong. |

| Yes Dave,Mullen and ShoPro are top shelf instruments. They are equally superb guitars. Either one will keep you busy for a lifetime! |

I think that one thing to consider is the ergonomics of a single wide vs double wide steel guitar.
I feel more comfortable with a SD (double-wide) because I sit farther from the strings, and I can stretch my legs. Yet the knee levers are still close. Of course you may have the opposite opinion.
If you can try out a single vs a double it might help your decision.
Regardless - have fun!!!

Thank you for the feedback. I'm going to run with Show Pro's "The Lloyd Green" which is an SD-10. Will place an order in for it today.
Now to decide on a Volume Pedal!
Thanks again!

That’s a beautiful guitar. If you’re throwing around that much bread, get a Telonics volume pedal, and be done with that concern.
We expect pictures on delivery. |
