I attended a Buddy Emmons & Jeff Newman concert in June, 1983 not far from Pittsburgh, PA. This was the most memorable day in my steel career. I learned more in those few hours than all the previo ...

I happen to own a grey formica EMCI D-10, S/N B-3113, 8+6

Certainly not the prettiest guitar I e ...

For as long as I've known the Peavey brand, they always provided the best bang for the buck. American made and solidly built. I currently play through a 1998 Nashville 400 with the Tone Mod and the 15 ...

The Big "A" in MSA Guitars. Godspeed to you, Reece...
you will be dearly missed.

I play above barroom levels ! The NV400 will fill that need as will a Twin Reverb !

Tony,

They are called pinch-pins. They are forced into an undersized aperture. The pin is case hardened like a special spring. It features a minuscule tapered leading edge and it's slotted to allow ...

Alan, I'm not too crazy about knee levers either, but I do not think that palm pedals are the solution. Personally, I have a six-pedal, no knee levers, Fender 400. How about considering heel and toe ...

I use ALL 10 strings all the time. Could never go to an 8 string. The only people I hear talk about the first 2 strings negatively are the one's that don't understand their purpose or have a sloppy ...

I'll say one thing for the Carter Starter; it's not very heavy. This afternoon I decided to move around all the cases in my basement containing pedal steels, so that I could open them and label up wh ...

Bo Legg,

Thanks for the SHO-BUD offer. It was nice of you to offer an affordable steel. I'm not interested at this time. On the subject of the "CARTER" steel, all welded parts must be rep ...
