I would not sell my LDG either. My first pedal steel and still my favorite, sometimes.
Since I had to order mine anyway, I got a natural finish. I guess I was impressed by the Mavericks I had been looking at to convert, but a guy I was going to buy one from talked me out of that path. He had a LDG, and I fell in love at first site.
I don't remember the year I ordered mine, I need to dig out the paperwork. I need to post a picture, if I can figure out how.

My understaning is Lloyd doesn't have, or spends little time on a computer. He'd rather be playing like we all should spend more time doing Image

OK....so one last question.

There have been a number of green LDGs floating around with the "SP" moniker. In fact, one is up for sale right now in the Buy & Sell ( http://steelguitarforum.com/Forum9/HTML/001872.html ). Why would they use "SP" for a seemingly standard green LDG?!?

I don't know why, Joe. But that is one pretty looking piece of wood. A little pricey, though.

Jack, When I worked with Mike McGee at the Hee Haw Theater in Branson in 1980 he had a "lavender" LDG. I've only seen one in that color. Mike said he couldn't get it to stay in tune to save his life. That's why he switched to his blue Emmons. Of course now he is a bona fide Zum man. Two Zums, yet! Oy Vay!
