I've tried it with 4 different amps and it does it on all of my amps. My main amp is a Fender Tone Master Twin reverb.

I have a Zumsteel Encore with a single coil pickup and I tend to get some weird ghost notes on chords.

I think I'd like to put a humbucker in it.

Any suggestions or anybody interested in a swap?

Thanks

Joe

Sure appreciate your comments.

I love that tone you're gettin' there. Really, I like all of it. "Blasting the Ramones", and so forth. And thanks for ending the tune on that Maj7th. And not resolving it. Did you title the track after the photo? Or dig up the picture afterward to match the song? Thanks so much for your c...

Wrote a new song a last week and played baritone gtr, Bass, and the Encore through the Fender Tone Master Twin direct into my interface.

My local buyer seems to have flaked out on me. Still available.

I have one I'm probably going to sell. Pm me. It's black and I'm asking 1200.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. That's why I love the Pedal steel community so much.

Here's a song of mine that I played some pedal steel on. It has a bunch of jazzy chords that I don't know the names of. Played my ZumSteel Stage One into a Fender 57 Custom Tweed Deluxe and used some Flint reverb and Carbon Copy delay. https://soundcloud.com/joesrockband/my-wife-gives-my-girlfriend-...

Just listened to that 1st track. Wow, that music and Will's playing is awesome. Count me as a fan.

Thanks so much for your comments everybody. I keep wondering if I should upgrade my Stage 1 to a more pro steel.

Thanks for your comment Melanie. It's always nice to have some positive encouragement.

My friend sent me a stereo track and asked me to play pad parts. You'll hear a click track in some parts. I'm still a bit of a novice but it was fun challenge.

I have had Rusty Goodman on mind here lately. A fantastic singer and writer and he penned some great gospel songs. Here is one of them "Leaving On My Mind".

Great playing.

I have the Tonemaster twin also. I like everything about it but the reverb and tremolo. I use a Strymon Flint for reverb and tremolo and a carbon copy delay.

I love the idea of including a feature to be a le set the power scale to 1 channel. Seems like that could be accomplished with A software update. I like the Steel on full power and like playing my strat at at 12 watts dimed.

Very interested but can you post a price range.

where in Nashville are you? I live in Inglewood and would like to check thhis out.

Just plain awesome.

Thanks so much for your comments and advice. I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Just when I think I'm making progress on the steel I realize I've got a lot to aspire to. Thanks for posting.

very cool
