Bob - I used GuitarFetish.com for 6 string pickups and tuners. Bought one Wallace TrueTone 12 string pickup new. For 10 strings, you can go over to the forum For Sale section and 9 times out of 10 someone will be selling a George L pickup. They sound fine. I used a Duncan Antiquity Stringmaster set ...

I've made and sold a few. Better if you look at it as a hobby that (mostly) pays for itself rather than as a profit-making enterprise. 6 stringers have to be given away for the cost of parts unless you can make something that looks and feels super premium. 8 stringers garner some interest, especiall...

George L E-66 Pickup

Pickup shows minor wear, as pictured. Bought from a forum member some time ago for a lap steel project that never happened. I assume it works but have never tested it myself. $50 shipped to the US. http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1504/12411_IMG_0639_2.jpg http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix...

INCREDIBLE! You do the song complete justice, on 14 strings, with TWO slides. I only wish there was some video of you playing, I would love to see how you achieve some of this. Best thing I have heard all day.

Martin 000CXE Black Acoustic/Electric Guitar - $425/shipped

Great condition. Some wear marks on the back (not scratches, just marks from rubbing on shirt buttons and the like, I guess.) It's a great sounding guitar acoustic or electric. I have a RoadRunner case for it. It's got hard foam and covered with nylon. So, not a polycarbonate hard shell case but a l...

I can't speak about playing them, but know this - you will have a much harder time selling a D6 when you get tired of it, because everyone thinks they need 8 strings.

I don't know. The page at Sill Music that I ordered from states that an "adapter" is required, but I don't have that:

Chrome Extension Legs for Lap Steel or Pedal Steel - $150

I have 3 brand new chrome extension legs with sockets. These came from Sill Music Supply. I attached them to one guitar, which I sold without the legs, so they came off. They never left the house and are in new condition. They have a D2F leg bag included. These are your best option for your project ...

You missed the S8 I just had for sale for $300. I am working on an ultra-minimalist, lightweight plank for that kind of "porch pickin'". It will have your choice of 6-10 strings and I will probably sell it for $150 or so. Unfortunately I can't give you any kind of firm date at this point. ...

guitarfetish.com has inexpensive stuff that (in my opinion) is still good quality. StewMac has brand-name, quality stuff. For 8 string pickups, you can go with 8 string pickups meant for 8 string electric guitars (usually marketed to the metal crowd, so they're pretty high output), or use a bass pic...
