The Steel Guitar Forum

Hello there, during the search for the correct pedal steel for myself, I have come across a few pedal steels and, maybe like many of you, am a bit of a hoarder. I play in a few cover bands and I keep holding on to the idea that some day it might be nice to have a few extra steels laying around, but ...

I found his craigslist ad an hour or two after he posted it and emailed him, he never responded, then I did some digging and found the reverb ad and messaged him through that. Then I saw this thread and felt guilty. It was a cool guitar, seemed a little pricy, and I have way too many guitars. But he...

I recently acquired a gfi ultra and it appears to have very short legs, it measures 25 1/4 inches. I cant even play it. Id trade the legs or buy longer legs. I know I can get them from GFI and I will probably end up doing that if no one has any laying around, but I thought id try and save a little m...

Looking to build a sneaky Pete copy, hard to find parts, I have a short scale, but either will do, looking to combine a few fenders and then experiment with the leftovers. Not looking to spend a ton but will consider all, and I don’t care if it is in bad shape, parts seem to be hard to find. Let m...

Sold, donation on the way, bye bye gfi I will miss you. Maybe I will someday get a u12 version;)

1800 and split shipping? pretty light guitar shipping wont be that much. im open to offers? maybe a trade?

I love gfi guitars, it is really a great guitar, I just am now playing u12 way more, and I already have 4 guitars, I think the only trade i would consider is for another gfi but a u12, maybe a sierra u12. But id really just like to sell it. I live 2 hours from los angeles in the mountains, just as a...

GFI expo, 3x4, plays great, stays in tune, mechanically in great shape, it has a few little imperfections, hard to see unless up close, I can send pics if a concern. It is very light weight. it comes with the ohsc and leg bag. love the guitar but I have too many and this just sits. mostly play u12 a...

I have an early 70s fender 400 with the black cast pedals, it is a 4 pedal model, id like to add more pedals, im pretty sure I have found a few different ideas for knees, but id rather use oem if possible for the pedals, so im looking for the pedal assemblies, rods, and all the connecting parts, pul...

Thanks for all the posts and emails, I think I found my u12.

thanks for the pics Steve Waltz, I cant do anything about it now, and I didn't spend that much money on the dumb thing, well more than i would have liked, but its just making me mad that the guy who sold it to me is being such a jerk, his arguments don't even make sense, and i just asked to see the ...

Bob is giving me a great price on getting it playable and fixing small things, he is such a nice guy, anyways, i do clearly see the differences in the pics, and i even sent the pics to the seller and he said that miller made custom guitars and that maybe a customer requested the differences? lol. Th...

I reached out to the guy who sold it to me, and he is saying that he had 2 pedal steel guitar experts identify it as a Miller but he is being combative and kind of a jerk, any help on identifying it? or help proving its not a miller?

It looks like you guys are correct, Bob Simmons, who was a personal friend of Mr Miller, said it is his opinion that the only part that appears to be a miller is the fretboard? He also said it doesn’t look like a professional job? Any ideas on what it is? And as I mentioned before, those are the o...

sorry, I thought that I would get an email every time I got a reply to my post, didn't intentionally ignore you guys. these are the last pics i have, I was recommended to contact Bob Simmons he said it looks to be a miller and I shipped it to him about a week ago, ill keep you updated. https://bb.st...

Hello all, I am a new member but I’ve used the site for a while now and love the site. I am looking for a u12. I don’t really care about cosmetics, all I care about is the mechanical condition. id like it to be as cheap as possible, (dont we all) Long story short the first pedal steel I got was ...
