Nice axe, one thing I like about it is the pedal rods connect on the outside of the pedals - it has that last axle hole at the far left end of the backplate which gives you a slightly wider left leg p ...

Thanks!

Anyone know who played pedal steel on this pop hit that's out right now? Been hearing it on the local station that plays a lot of Taylor Swift etc, it's pretty minimalistic but very tasty & kind o ...

My first steel (a dreaded red-stained Maverick) had that G#-B pull on the B pedal, along with G#-A on string 3. I learned the basics with that on there, until I eventually realized it was wrong & ...

This sounds like what Gibson did on the later Console Grande and Console 500.

Edit - actually those were the other way around, the bass strings had a partial coil forwards the neck & the treble ...

Hey Johnie, sent you a pm about some of these - thanks

I'll take em

Sounds like a phaser pedal to me, reminds me of my orange Ross or the MXR phase-95 on similar settings. Tasty playing!

Very interesting, so the bass side magnet is bigger but the coil winding is the same (of course, although I suppose it could have fanned out wider) but slanted - which foreshadows the slanted placemen ...

Here are some more pics. Even if you aren't interested in the electronics, this is a great deal on a lightweight sidecar seat with built-in power!

Ray, I sent you a PM with a few questions - thanks!

$450 + ship or pickup?

I'll grab the Freeloader if still available? Sending PM. . .

Someone make me an offer!

These are cool, I actually have two - a 50's and a 60's one. Going by the case this would be later 60's. Supposedly they outfitted these with leftover Broadcaster or Esquire pickups? Not sure if that' ...

2 problems I have with them:

1. easy to knock things out of the strip when getting up & down from the seat

2. Pain in the butt to wind/unwind a long power chord under the chair every time. I ...

Oh right!

That decal & the fretboards clearly have been on there for a long time. It makes me think of the occasional old Gibson lap steel or guitar you see with a Fleur-de-Lis emblem instead of the flower ...

Maybe those are the original tuners, and bridge covers - not near mine to check. . .

It will sound killer through that Deluxe!!

These were built from like 1948-1954 or so? Earliest ones had Charlie Christian style pickups, then "racetrack" with pole pieces, then P-90 types. Also they were actually mostly-hollow cabin ...

Actually the case doesn't look like it has leg holders (usually on the lid) so either this didn't ever have them or else this isn't the original case.

Also, the body doesn't look like it has any bi ...
