| I have a opportunity to buy a Nashville LTD pedal steel. I am not fimiliar with this make of pedal steel. Can anyone give me some insight, into the pedal action and tuning? It is a single neck with 3 & 4. Has a wood neck with a formica body. Any input would greatly be appreciated. Thanks |

The late Ed Naylor had the rights to this name last. (I would be surprised if he actually made one, but that is another story.) I don't remember how long he was the owner of the Nashville LTD company.
I have seen photos of a "Doug Jernigan" model, before, and it looked very nice from top and bottom. Everything was polished up to a high gloss.
I'm sure those with personal experience will reply here, soon, but I suspect that whether or not they were any good will depend on what era they were produced in.

| I bought five of the Nashville Ltd' guitars when they were on the market as a new guitar. Three S-10D's and two D-10's. One of the S-10D was a pretty good guitar and one of the D-10's a Doug Jernigan model was a nice guitar. The other three were bad. Wouldn't stay in tune and one of them even had a part on it that actually came off the guitar when I was playing one night. The DJ model is the only one I would even consider. Not being negative here, just speaking from my days with the NV-Ltds'. If I remember right the changers on each one of guitars except the DJ model was a problem also. Then again you may buy one tomorrow and it be the best guitar you've ever had. I've seen lemons throughout the years but seems like I bought a bag full with the NV-Ltds'. |
