A fellow forum member plays this guitar and we were curious if anyone else had one while I visited today. It’s a Lynch pedal steel and has a fingertip style changer, all pull. It sounds and plays like a Sho bud and I’m in love with it. Anyone have one?

I have one, but I found it closer to a Walters guitar than a Sho-Bud. That is not surprising as both Lynch (Pontiac) and Walters (Monroe) were made in Michigan. Are they maybe an hour's drive apart?
I think I found my Lynch at Blackie Taylor's. I cannot remember where I got the Walters. I think I sold the Walters to someone here.

I looked on my computer and did not see any. I will have to take a bunch when I get to the warehouse.

Very Kool.
Looks like a rough version of the fingertip.
I never saw one like it, but that keyhead is so kool. And a D-11 to boot.
Would love to see the underside.

Do a Forum search. I know I have posted photos of Walters pedal steels and probably Lynch as well. Check. Otherwise, I can take a number of photos when i get to the warehouse.

Andy sadly I don't but it is spot on to a Fingertip under carriage! The parts look a little bit duller than Sho Bud.

Wow, a Lynch thread!! Here’s my D-8, had it for many years. Pretty much a crude perm copy. Same keyhead detail as the one Liam posted.
