Stadler SD-10 Marlen

Yes, you are right. That's the stuff. It weighs 11 pounds 3 ounces. That tuning mechanism is pretty crafty, I've never seen one like it before. It looks like a decent idea as long as you get the length right when you put it on the post. I don't play the steel but I checked it through a Princeton Rev...

Stadler SD-10 Marlen

Good deal. I appreciate your help and insight. I'll post the pictures of the other one in the without pedals section. The serial number on this Marlen looks like 3991378 so does that make it a 1978? I was worried about the availability of parts if any were missing, thanks for the parts info. Who eve...

Stadler SD-10 Marlen

Thank you for the information. I know nothing about steel guitars. It looks like everything has allen set screws. I took a few pictures of what I think you were asking about. I have this other lap guitar and I have no idea who made it. It's pretty heavy and I haven't taken off the back cover to read...

Stadler SD-10 Marlen

I got this in 2008 and it sat in the case until I took a bunch of my vintage music stuff to a place here in Las Vegas called Cowtown Guitars. You can read the cowtown ripoff reviews online, they are now out of business. The bad reviews are all true. Anyway, when I got my stuff back from the shop vin...
