Why not just call it Melotone, without that "n" at the end, to avoid it sounding like a Finnish surname?

Nice sounding, maybe you could do a Pedal Steel Country sound clip with that new bar...

Hi Charlie. Did you mean that you wanted to hear the bar on a proper pedal steel guitar? Or would a country piece on an old time console non-pedal do? I just got a pedal steel guitar two weeks ago and am lost on it. In fact stink on it. Maybe I can fake something but I'd be real embarrassed with all those real PSG players out there.
I can tell you that the bar works just as well on a PSG. That's why I had Bill make this one a little longer for me.

I just got my bar from Bill, and I just love it! Nice clean warm tone, no string noise
and it's easy for me to hold on to. If the pinging tone of chrome or stainless bars
is not for you, try one of Bill's bars! Thank you Bill.

Derrick, I do not post prices as I have no standard type bars. I charge according to what the customer needs. All my bars are made to order. Weight, diameter, length, color, dot on the end, no dot, etc. Obviously a longer, heavier bar would cost more than a lighter, shorter bar. If you want a price, please PM me and we will talk about your needs. The bar in the picture went to Hawaii. The customer wanted one 3/4" x 3" between 4.5 and 5 ounces with a dot. Here is the bar and it sold for $75 + $7 shipping.

Thanks for your interest.

Bill Groner
