TC Furlong Sesh 400 pedal

Sesh 400 pedal in great condition! Just a few minor scuffs on the bottom plate. Great front end for an amp, or as a di box for recording and live "ampless" situations. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2203/1229_IMG_2373_1.jpg https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2203/1229_IMG_2375_...

Don’t see a link Joe, but the late and very great Gene O’Neal played with Judy (on a Bud as I recall). As did the great fiddler Bobby Hicks.

Tommy, I have some swivels (10 or so), delrin bushings (for crossrods), lower stop screws, and a tuning wrench that fits the lower screws. Let me know, and I'll get them to you. They were all from a Speedy West model. I have another Marlen on the way that is a early 2000's all-pull guitar that shou...

Marlen Pull-Release Parts

On the lookout for some parts for an early-70’s Marlen pull-release guitar. Specifically, some bell cranks, swivels, collars, etc.

I’ve got one coming in that needs some major TLC.

1993 Zumsteel D-10 8X5 ***SOLD***

This is a very nice Zumsteel that I am listing on behalf of a friend who has retired from playing. It is a 1993 model, serial #D1085490. It is in very good overall condition, with a few cosmetic flaws that I have tried to show in the photos. I would rate the aluminum and the mica both as 7.5-8 out o...

I always set my steel on top of my seat (with the back folded down). It’s a bit of a balancing act but it becomes second nature. Works great for me!

4-space rack by Cush Case

I'm looking for one of these racks. They were made by Kush Case and have the hinged lid and lower compartment access.

Or I'm open to something similar with the same functionality.

You are so right Andy! Clem has been such a great help to me over the years. And I so enjoy his teaching materials. He's just a jewel!

BTW the 8th and 9th string lowers on E9 have the springs near the changer. Maybe the 6th as well, it's hard to see in the pic.

I am sad to report that David Waters passed away last night. David was the long-time guitarist for Billy Mata and The Texas Tradition, as well as April and Jason Hall. He was a great player, a wonderful guy with a terrific sense of humor, and a steel player’s best friend. You will be missed by so ma...

Interesting spring locations on push-pull lowers.

I took this guitar in to work on and it has many of the shock springs for the lowers on the ends of the rods near the changer fingers. Aside from the possibility that in operation a rod might interfere with a raise finger, I can’t see any other disadvantages to this method. And the advantages are th...

I have had a pair of SW-10’s in one of my push pulls for a while now. One is a prototype Scott sent me to try and give him some feedback on. I liked it so much I ordered another one for the C neck. (And yes, for the record, I paid for them) These pickups are the closest in sound to a single coil tha...

I bought a guitar a couple years ago that had the 3rd and 7th raise and immediately fell in love with it. It was like “where you been all my life baby?” 😜. I had to have it on my new Emmons. 😉👍🏻
