Did they make an all-pull?
The only one I ever saw in person was a pull-release. This means it will be difficult to find parts for work, and challenging to work on. Unless you are part Gyro Gearloose, and part Caractacus Potts, this should not be your first pedal steel guitar

wilcox pedal steel 3 Floors, 4 Knees. Bill Lawrence 705 Pickup. Triple raise/Double lower changer, Grover keys, square cross shafts, Milled aluminum and steel parts, cast neck, headstock, and endplates. Solid maple 3/4 inch body. Very nice guitar. Used Emmons hard case included. Great sounding, great playing guitar.

I'd buy that one. In a heartbeat. Except that I don't like single tens.

Either it was a different Wilcox or my memory was lousy about the name. It was a pull-release in the mid 80s in Florida
