Hi Ryan,

Add 2 more... 1976 and 1980 S-10s. Both are black formica.

Like Glen, I file notches but only one on each pick. The notches face each other when the picks are placed on my index and middle fingers. It's works well because you can feel the notches and know whether they're positioned properly without having to look at them. If I used a third I simply wouldn't...

Guitar is sold pending payment... Donation to follow. I thank everyone who showed interest and also for the kind comments! Happy Holidays to you all! Leif

Thanks Mikey! Happy Holiday. Leif

Thanks Tommy for your comment! Yes, I agree with you. Leif

Hi Gene, question... What is the significance of trim with green in it?
Thanks,
Leif

Correction and apology! Mikey vs Mick.... Again I apologize! Leif

Hi Mick, you are correct! Built like a tank, but plays like butter! thanks for the comment. Leif

1970's MSA Classic S-10 with laquer finish. Anybody looking to upgrade would be very pleased with this one. It sounds good with it's 705 pick-up and is solidly built! $1400.00 shipped. http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1205/10928_msa012_1.jpg http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1205/10928_msa0...

No idea what happened! I simply stated that I would recommend a Peavey sessions 400 or 500 amp since you are playing for yourself. Get that pedal steel sound! Once that amp
is in your home, you are good!

Joe, nice guitar!! I have a 70s MSA Classic S10 and I'm convinced it is one of the best under rated pedal steel out there. Mechanically built like a tank! Yes, weighs like a tank too!! Lol...

Enjoy it and congrats! Leif

Tony, you are correct. Changer springs are still intact. Also, your comment for kudos to Dana Flood is appreciated also, thanks...

I want to thank everyone who left comments. I appreciate the input!
Again thank you,
Leif

Well, yes I do get a whole tone on the 1st string. Also, you'll notice that there are no return springs, that's because it makes the p/p easier to play, less tension on the pedals and knee levers. When I commissioned Dana to do the repairs I explicitely mentioned I wanted neat straight lines under t...

Hey guys, Just wanted to share my pleasure having received my Emmons S-10 4/4. When I purchased it a couple months ago it was in pitiful shape, but the price was right. The individual I purchased the guitar from highly recommended Dana Flood, an Emmons expert located in Bangor, ME. (Email address: p...

Hi Cartwright, PM sent.... Leif Lomeland

PM sent, thanks, Leif

Hi Richard, I have the Fender Artist S-10 model and the way to tune it is this: Plug in a tuner and tune all the strings to the E9th tuning. Then starting with pedal A depress it and see what the tuner reads. If it's higher or lower than what it should be you then adjust it by turning the plastic he...
