I have a new Kid's model six string pedal steel guitar now available to order. I hope this guitar helps to get the life back in the steel guitar with Kid's and young folks.
Legs can be as short as 8 inches and up according to what you want. The guitar can grow up with your child. All that is needed is longer legs and pedal rods that will be available from Hudson Steel guitars.
Prices will start at $425.00 + Shipping
Thanks for looking.
PLEASE NOTE PRICES: This is the kids model and the price is for the kids model. My STANDARD Models start at $895.00
Call 704-986-6481 for more info. I will have one of these in the for sale section as soon as I can get a extra one built.

Let me be the first to tell you that is a great idea and a very good looking PSG! If I was 60 years younger I would be pesting my parents. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) _________________ Currently own, 6 Groner-tone lap steels, one 1953 Alamo Lap steel, Roland Cube, Fender Champion 40 |

I think that is a great idea! Let very young kids get a taste of steel. My grandson is 12 now and probably gonna start next year. He is playing sax in school and a little regular guitar and is quite good on piano. I will encourage him if he shows real interest. _________________ Emmons D-10, ST-10,LD-10 III, NV-112,Fender Deluxe Reverb. Authorized wholesale dealer musicorp.com! |

Thanks Bill and Doug for your kind words.
I think any young Pedal steel players in the future will have all the job offers any player would ever need,
Not going to be very much competition for the jobs that will be available.
Real Country music will be back to the top one day.
You can't have real country music without a Pedal Steel guitar involved in it. |

Jimmie that is a great idea that its made so when the child grows all you have to do is add longer legs and pedal rods. If you think about it its a guitar for life. great idea as all ways you are building more stuff for the steel guitar world. great job |

What a great idea and a very nice price too!
Can we see what the underside looks like, please? |
I already shipped it and did not take photos of underside.
It has the same undercarriage as I use on all my Pedal steel guitars.
Cross shafts are mounted in ball bearings and the bell cranks can be moved. Standard pull rod system, and a tone monster Pull Release changer. |

Not on the one pictured but not a problem to add the knee levers. I can do them with up to 3 pedals and 4 knee levers. |

Mr. Hudson,
You must have read my mind!
My granddaughter has been fascinated with all things
steel guitar ever since she could hold a bar. She was
about 2 1/2 here. Anyway, yesterday she’s helping Pop
play, and I thought “I sure wish there was a youngster-size
pedal steel.†I woke up, looked on the forum, and here we go.
Thank you Mr. Hudson
