Great shape Fender 400 for sale original pickup, case, leg pouch...paint and chrome also in great shape...looking to sell to help fund a dreadnought...one is for sale on eBay right now for around this price which is why I put that but I'm open to offers....thanks for looking, please email me at erba...

I've got a pretty nice fender 400 to trade if you are interested...funny enough I used to live in northern CA and at one time emailed Gene to ask if he wanted to buy my fender...small world...email me at erbacherchris@gmail.com if interested thanks

Are you interested in a trade? I have a '67 fender 400 pedal steel in great shape

In trade for a Martin d-28...the zb could use some work but has better tone than my s- 10 zb by a tiny bit...someone before me messed with the underside...it functions and I gigged with it for years until Dave zirbel hooked me up with an s-10...but it needs a setup and pedal rods the c6 neck...the f...

Doing a little bit of upgrading in my 135 watt twin and cant read the values on the little ceramic disc caps to order replacements...anyone know offhand what they are?

i live in San Fran...I could do the gigs if you need a steel player...i play a '72 zb custom thru a silverface twin with jbl's...i could fly with my steel though if you have an amp there...my email is schwerbahn@gmail.com...hit me up and i will give you my phone number and talk some more about what ...

how much is the regular going rate for a steel player who can sing lead and backup harmony vocals while playing steel? who is doing this?

hi, i have a 135 watt fender twin that is going in for a tune up...there is a lot of white noise coming out of it when idle...i'm wondering what i can tell the tech to replace when poking around under the hood? i'm having him clean all the pots and replace the tubes with good used american and germa...

anyone take one apart yet and put some auricaps in there? or other high end audiophile caps? just curious...how does it sound compared to a fender?

hey brad...i own your old zb...it was more blue when i got it a few years ago but still sounds great and plays well...more of a grey/blue/green color now depending on the light...i got it from henry nagle in santa rosa...

135 watt ultralinear version...haven't plugged it in in two years...sat in a van for all that time...tubes fire up look good...but it makes a nasty sounding groan like noise that doesn't sound like a 60 cycle hum sound...ground lift in the back does nothing to help it...reverb circuit doesn't seem t...

buy it and join the club...link it to a silverface fender twin with jbl e-120's and auricaps under the hood and revel in tone heaven...no matter how much bs you have to deal with now and then...when you get it balanced and playing right, you will be grinning from ear to ear...that's what you want ri...

i borrowed a hartke kickback 12 from a friend and one of the knobs fell off and got busted...now i am having trouble finding the correct replacement...anyone have any ideas where i can order one?

i have an older paramount solid state amp with reverb and tremelo from the 60's...10 inch speaker...and it has a bad hum that i think is a 60 cycle hum and i am wondering where i should look first in getting rid of it? the amp still has the two prong cord and i was thinking of replacing that first a...

barry do you have any charts you would want to pass along?...being able to get these voicings without the back neck or universal is pretty cool if you ask me and if there are slants involved i think it would be pretty cool to learn also...but i only know basic theory so in some ways i feel lost fish...

at a jam about a month ago i was told by a fellow steel player that there is a way to play in b6 by holding a knee lever in...on an e 9 tuned instrument (mine is a pretty standard emmons setup 3x4)...now i can't remember which lever...anyone have any ideas of how to do this or can offer any advice f...

stage right house left...that way i can catch the nuances of the rest of the players when looking at my bar hand...and if i want to extend my solo to another round...it is easier...if i was playing a left handed steel, it would be the opposite...

i read somewhere an interview with tom and he said he always used a blackface twin, or one that had been blackfaced...someone else here may be able to confirm that or correct me if i am wrong...and you gotta have a ZB to get that tone, and preferably one made by zane...larry chung can probably point...

i'm using a clip on chromatic tuner now for everything because it is super easy to use...banjo, acoustic guitar, uke and steel, just clip it on and tune it up...works on vibration and is the best one i have used of these type of tuners...$30...brand is KORG model number is AW-2G...

anyone use a rode ntk for a single mic? i have one and love it but haven't ever used it for this app...i am starting a group and thinking of going in this direction for sound reinforcement and am wondering if it would work...i have never been in a group that uses one mic only so...just curious...

guitar rig 2 with the metal footswitch works great with my steel and two banjos on my macbook pro...for the money and features it can't be beat for space usage or effect quality...i don't use it all the time, but when i need it is pretty sweet...

i bought a micro cube a few years ago and it has been all over the place with me and is a handy little device and has a decent tone at the low volume. i used it as a preamp recently for running to the board at the play i did steel parts for and i got a lot of compliments on the sound...wise buy for ...

i just finished doing the steel parts for a play in which i was the only one who couldn't read music and play it at the same time...but i could do a lot better by the end of the run and i now dig having it on paper...i used to run away from it, now it makes things easier when learning specific parts...
