The Steel Guitar Forum

I am selling my 8 string Melbert steel. It is a great guitar but I am not playing any 8 string tunings any more. I believe that I am the second owner of this instrument. This is the older, asymmetric body style (which I prefer). I replaced the original pickup with a Rio Grande Halfbreed Stringmaster...

Sold...pending payment.

I have decided to part with my Fender Dual 6 (Dual Professional?) steel. It is in very good condition for its age (nearly 70 years old). I am the second owner. It includes the functional original case and legs. When I acquired the steel, the output from the pickups was weak and uneven. A few years a...

Where is the pickup selector switch on that beauty? I assume the two knobs are "volume" and "tone".

Not sure about the alloy. Had it made for me. He didn't fill me in on all of the details. It's his standard CC style pickup that was custom made to fit in the above models steels.

I realize this is a niche item, but what I have for sale is a replacement pickup for a vintage Epiphone lap steel. This should fit Model C, Century, Coronet, Zephyr models and possibly later (non-horseshoe) Model M steels. This pickup is a custom made version of a Vintage Vibe CC model pickup made b...

I have a 30s National New Yorker lap steel. I really like the instrument but I find the output of the pickups really weak. Also the string-to-string balance seems off on all settings (harp, chimes, Hawaiian). While I have no similar instrument for comparison, I believe my guitar's pickups may need w...

This amp has sold. Thanks for looking.

Hello, I am selling my Quilter micropro amp pictured below. The amp is in very good condition, with no significant wear. 8 inch speaker but can get very loud. Comes with cover and footswitch. Asking $550 plus $39 shipping. Would consider interesting trades or partial trades. Thanks, Sam http://bb.st...

5/11 update: All have sold except for the Regal and Rogue. Let me know if anyone is interested in these.

I am cleaning house! The lap steels I am selling, are ones I acquired over the years for (what I considered at the time) good deals. I intended to restore, modify or just tinker with these, but I have come to the realization that I will never have the free time to do these justice. None of these ite...

Thanks for the offer but I am really looking for the wave capo.

I am looking to trade my EG Smith tone bar or a Beard Wave capo. The retail prices of both items are approximately equal, so it would be an even trade. Although the EG Smith bars are a bit harder to come by. My bar is in very good condition. I have attached a generic picture of both of the items men...
