A bona-fide genius, and a helluva nice guy. I’m glad I got to meet him and that I have had the privilege to work on and own several Blantons myself. A Blanton bellcrank is a thing of beauty. Rest in peace, good sir.

VERY saddened to hear this, although not too surprised. I've known, chatted with, and traded instruments with Steve for 20 years. We never met in person, but we kept in touch via the Forum and email. If too much time went by, one or the other of us would reach out and say hi and just check in. The ...

Peavey PME-4 parametric EQ
Four-band parametric EQ; very useful and versatile equalizer; it allows you to really dig down in there and stifle that infernal mid-range "honk" inherent in some steel guitar amplifiers. It's been around the block, but it's a Peavey, so it still works as it should. A few of the pot shafts...

Ibanez UE-400 vintage effects unit, modded for steel
Clean Ibanez UE-400 effects unit. 4 modules--compressor, phaser, distortion, and chorus/flanger. I don't have the pedal board with it, but I modified it to work with a switch box I built which clips to the leg of a steel. I replaced the "proprietary" socket on the rear of the unit with a s...

**CLEAN** Emmons PP D-10 Rosewood $2950
Super clean push-pull, 8x4, Day setup, all original. The pics tell the story I need to get $2950 plus shipping out of it, and that's a good price for a push-pull as clean as this one. I've got it priced higher elsewhere, but $2950 is the No-B.S.-Steel-Guitar-Forum-Brethren(and Sistren) price. I was...

Anyone know who's the custodian of the Emmons Co. records, and how to get a hold of them?

'54 Fender Dual Pro ***CLEAN!***
Sweet little blonde '54 Dual Pro w/ OHSC. Original trap pickups sound fantastic. Tuners and tuner buttons are all in good shape and work well. It's been played, but taken care of over its 62 years. Case is worn, but fully functional; all latches and hinges work, including the leather snap buckles fo...
