The pictures from the for sale add is not complete.
Some close up pictures of the changer, And the underside of the guitar. Would allow more knowledge of the mechanics of the guitar. Having 4 Knee Levers, The guitar should have string lower capability.

On pull and release changers, Lowering strings can be complicated.

Good Luck with your new steel. Happy steelin.

I know this is a very very long shot, it is to ask if anyone on the forum has any idea who may have made this steel?I would think when it was first built it was a very nice steel, but alas it has been through the hands of butchers and is a complete basket case, I was told by the previous owner it was top quality Pro steel and one of the best he had ever seen,, and took him to his word only to find out when i got it home it was a complete wreck. missing parts every thing was absolutely filthy, So please guys make sure you get a load of details and pictures on any thing you are thinking of buying, unless you know the seller to be an honest and trustworthy person, So don't trust anyone you don't know like i did and paid the price, i only have myself to blame for being a trusting guy.NEVER AGAIN!!!

I've never heard of that brand, so I don't think it was a production guitar. Maybe a builder who made just this one.
