Using the Search button on the Forum you will find quite a few previous posts and discussions about Blanton pedal steel guitars.
They are quite unique. _________________ Lee, from South Texas - Down On The Rio Grande

The one I am looking at apparently is a newer one, has a maple body, not the old metal heavy one... |

He is still building currently and makes an awesome affordable SD-10 as well. His older double necks were built like freaking tanks and awesome tone and playability. _________________ Pre RP Mullen D10 8/7, Zum 3/4, Carter S-10 3/4, previous Cougar SD-10 3/4 & GFI S-10 3/4, Fender Steel King, 2 Peavey Session 500's, Peavey Nashville 400, Boss DD-3, Profex-II, Hilton Digital Sustain, '88 Les Paul Custom,Epiphone MBIBG J-45, Fender Strat & Tele's, Takamine acoustics, Marshall amps, Boss effects, Ibanez Tube Screamer, and it all started with an old cranky worn out Kay acoustic you could slide a Mack truck between the strings and fretboard on!! |
