I need to thin the herd! .... With no gigs on the horizon, I can't justify keeping 3 steels around.
This is a Sho-Bud D-10 8+6 Pro-II that was totally re-built last year. If you are in love with the 'Bud sound, this is an essentially new guitar with an an undercarriage that surpasses anything Sho-Bud ever produced.
All of the old pot-metal parts were removed and replaced with NEW "Coop" parts.....including:
-- New E9th and C6th "Coop" Super-Finger changers w/ ball-bearing pivots
-- New Triple raise / Double lower bell cranks
-- New pull-rods
-- New Tear-Drop knee levers
-- 4 New legs
The guitar has had the front-panel refinished by Twelfth Fret of Portland Oregon (the original owner had one of those damned "custom made for..." plaques which was removed and re-lacquered).
It sounds great, plays like a modern guitar and has only been out of my non-smoking home only 3 times. It comes w/ an OEM case, which is also in great shape.
Copedent:
E9th pedals: standard Emmons set-up
C6th pedals: standard 4-8
LKL: 4th & 8th st (+1/2)
LKR: 4th & 8th st (-1/2)
LKV: 5th st (-1/2 )
LKL-C: C6th (duplicate 7th pedal to use w/ ped 5&6)
RKL: 1st st (+ 1) / 2nd st (+1/2) / 6th st (-1) / C6th 3rd st (-1/2)
RKR: 2nd st (-1 w/ half stop)/ 9th st (-1/2)
$3250.00 shipped to CONUS

Chris, I've noticed no weight change after the rebuild. If the Coop parts are heavier, it's only nominally so.
As far as smoking goes, it's a leading cause of knee lever disease and E9th-physema. ...... All kidding aside, some folks just do not like their instruments smelling of cigarette smoke. Others could care less.

Matt, I never truly want to sell any musical equipment, much less a pedal steel. Sometimes you just gotta bite the bullet and let things go. |

David, I haven't had any improvement in cell phone reception when playing the 'Bud , but I have started picking up a 1970's top-forty radio station based out of Tajikistan in several of my dental fillings.

Sometimes I think he should be putting his parts into a perspex body, then you could see them without turning the instrument upside-down. _________________ http://steelguitar.ning.com/profile/AlanFBrookes |

Steve, have you ever been to any of the Portland Steel Jams?
If not, you should try and make the next one. For some reason, PDX has, not only a bumper crop of young steelers, but a boatload of older ones too. We get anywhere from 30-40 guys turn out for the events. Seattle guys like Dave Harmonson and Dan Tyak have made the trek southward. |

| In or around 1977 I visted the MSA Steel Shop in Dallas and they had on the floor a clear plexigass steel, it was awesome. It was just a model to show you the workings of the steel. I only wish that I had it today, perhaps Maurice would know where it is today. jrrose0740@yahoo.com |
