GFI SD10 w/3 & 5 - $1650.00 obo + shipping

Unfortunately, this gem has been gathering dust for the last several years. Great instrument, but I've developed such severe tremors in both hands that I can only dream about playing anything now. My wife took 6 pictures but only 5 turned out. Great factory case comes with it. :) https://bb.steelgui...

What do you consider the top 5 (or 10) best pedal steels?

Most everyone on this forum is likely to be more experienced than me, so I'm wondering what your so many years & decades of experience have shown the best to be. In my very limited experience my personal favorites have been, in descending order: GFI, BMI, Sierra, Remington & Carter. Whaddaya...

Thanks, MD

Thanks, MD. If I didn't have two of these I wouldn't be letting this one go. The other one I've had longer than any other guitar & expect it to be around long after I'm gone. :)

Steve, I am so glad you're enjoying it. You're definitely a serious musician. I, too, think it should get more exposure. One of Mr. Fessenden's genius creations that he's just way too modest about, I think. :-)

I wish I could tell you, Fred. As you can see, it's pretty simple underneath. You might consider dropping Mr. Fessenden a note on his website; he is, of course, the ultimate authority, having designed & manufactured it, himself.

FESSENDEN 6 string pedal steel

Fessenden 6 string pedal steel guitar in excellent condition. Tuning is like Emmons, G#, E, B, G#, E, B. A & B pedals as usual, no c pedal or levers, so E string has to be maneuvered by sliding the bar. Upon quick removal of the pedal rods, the legs fold up underneath for use as a lap steel. Ver...

Zum no longer makes these; they're "licensed by Zum" & manufactured elsewhere, but still in the U.S. This one shows VERY little if any wear. It's considered a student model, but has some pretty good quality construction, like the 4 all-chrome adjustable legs, hard case, etc. $750.00, i...
