Surprised we haven't heard about it before. This video on Adair's YouTube channel is actually from mid-2014.

Hello guys, thank you all for the comments about TowerS Steel Guitars.
I've been playing Pedal Steel since 1980, I have a lot of musician friends who would like to learn how to play PSG. I decided to build my own brand to facilitate access to the instrument because of the high fees to import from the USA .. Here in Brazil the customs fees are around 60% on the value of the instrument plus S & H ..
We are providing legal documentation for TowerS to start exporting to South America first of all.
We have made and sold more than 30 Pedal Steel Guitars.
Thanks again.

The guy who bought this Pedal Steel, is a person of very low stature, he is only 1.5 meters high . So he cut off the pedal steel legs ... and it seems to me that he did it wrong.

Yeah... thank you so much
I love restoring old Pedal steel guitars.
Our Student model is the "Step One" model...With adjustable legs and humbucker pickups ...
So beginners may feel a little more comfortable to learn ... We think a good start means a lot in the learning period

I don't like to think about of a student model without features like adjusting the height of the legs ..... How do you'll learn if you can't sit behind a steel guitar....?
