I think I have the bottom to this.
I just purchased a shobud ldg,
and it has a shobud pedal bottom in the shobud seat that came with it. I know it does
Not have the top foot pedal part. That’s how I found this post, I was looking for the pedal portion.
Mine has the components on it as well.

Thanks Jon, and yes it does have knee reliefs, it did sell praise the Lord, so I’m still 2/3 away from having enough to purchase the Zum, but. Believing I’ll get there.

Travis custom s12 6/6 has sold on another site off the forum.
Please close! Thank You!

For Sale is this custom made Travis s12 6/6 E9 ext tuning. Guitar was built by Travis Dean Reed from Muskogee, OK I found this psg at my dads covered in dust, I spent about 20 hrs cleaning it, restringing with sit’s. Cleaned the changer and roller nut and began to set up the pedals, got a part of ...

So sad, I had talked with him just a few weeks ago and he sent me a whole lot of vintage steel guitar links, and pictures of his instrument collection and, those that he planned to give away. He told me how he bought instruments and gave them to vets that wanted them, to keep them from being depress...

That is a beautiful guitar!! Dreams for me!! Just awesome!!!

Thanks Bob, all I need to do is tune the pedals and levers and it will be in good working order. it actually had 6 kl’s, Lkv went to a rod that went up through the body and came up and made a loop beside the 4th string tuner on the headstock, just moving up and down, I have no idea what it did. It...

Thanks Paul, oddball indeed, it’s not real heavy, I would guess around 40 to 50 lbs., and no case that I could find. I was told by some others that knew Mr. Reed, may God rest his soul, that he crafted almost all his own parts by hand using simple tools, and I can see that he did. Undoubting that ...

I was told this one was built by Travis Dean Reed in Muskogee, Oklahoma. I understand he wrapped his own pick ups as he built several psg. It is set up as an ext 9 ...

Thanks for that info John. Sounds like Mr. Reed and my dad had a lot in common. Both were salesman and musicians. I always said that dad could sell an refrigerator to an Eskimo and make him think he needed it. They probably played some music together back in the day. Dad is 81 and in an assisted liv...

Wow, thanks JR for the information, I remember that name now, My dad is Fred McBride from muskogee ok, he had a band years ago called the Golden Rocket boys. This steel was in a bedroom wasting away and I’ve tried to revive it. Still sounds pretty good, lots of sustain. Thanks again for the quick ...

I’m new to the forum and have found a S-12 6/6 pedal steel in my fathers back storage room. The guitar has “Travis custom” muskogee okla on the front of guitar. I would like to find out who built it if possible. It was in pitiful shape as it had been stored there for at least 20 years. I have ...
