Hey guys and gals, I am not looking to buy one or sell one, I was just curious how many members had a Franklin Ped-A-Bro or even who might like to have one.
I am sure that there are not many in existence as they are very expensive and probably more of a luxury to us, and our stage space is very limited.
I can only think of a few players who do have them, Paul Franklin, Hal Rugg and the guy who used to play with Keith Whitley. I also saw Tim Sargent play one with Ricky Skaggs on Nashville Now years ago, but I don't think it was his.
Theresa Galbraith, you probably have all the answers, Thanks, God Bless,
Michael T.

| Mike Johnson, is that the right name?... played one on the old TNN. And did they come in any colors other than green? |

This is off your thread, but I read about Marrs or one of his employees adding 2 pedals
to the Marrs Cat-Can (Rear Neck)of S/D 10.
I was pleased with the sound of the lap Cat-Can I owned at one time. There is a picture
& article on the forium some where.

I'm pretty sure Tyack has one
(you out there, Dan?)
Peggy Green has at least two -- one E9 and one C6
There may be a few more out there than you'd suspect.

Wow, thats great. I sure would like to add one to my toolbox. I am not in a position to buy one at this moment, but does anyone know if Paul is still building these? I did not see a price listed for a ped-a-bro on his site.
Guess I will just have to keep using my Match-Bro for a while.
Thanks,
Michael T. |

I was told by Brad, that he bought a "dobro" kit from Paul Beard, and then went on to build his one of a kind pedal dobro. The wood body that is secured to the frame has foam padding underneath it.
Check out his website for more photos of his excellent unique work.....
