The Steel Guitar Forum

Hi Bob, Thanks a lot. Now I have a plan to work with.

Jim and Jeff, sorry that was a mistake in Notation. The topstring and Action in the SGI ist D raise to E!

Lane Thanks for your thoughts.
I think my Steeltech.have to do some changes.All ZUM Kneelevers need reasonable actions. The SGI C6 is almost like the Emmons Setup.

Hi Steelforummembers, I have two steelguitars D-10 with different C6 copedent's. One is a old ZUM8/8 and the other is a Little SGI8/4. The ZUM have some Actions more Actions than the SGI. Maybe there's a lot wrong in my Setup? I like to get normal playable Standard C6 Setups. I'm not so good in C6 K...

Thanks Jack.

Hello Forummembers,
I need for repair the Schematics/Circuit diagram for the active Volumenpedal
Goodrich "PH2-D"
US Pat.No.3,102,227
(two Input,two output)

I hope somebody can help in this case.
thx.
I got pictures but I don't know how I can upload these here over my Android mobil phone?

I had same Problem. It was the power supply. I bought a new one and the Hilton was back to life

Hi Travis,
I bought a old musicman amp 112 RD fifty.
Right now there's an Eminence lil Texas in it.
Would be the Double T Speaker the right speaker for my musicman or should I order a EPS 12C ?
Thanks for your Support

Thanks Tommy for the quick response, thanks Ken,
that's a big help.
I love this forum

Didi, Yes, the EPS should sound great in the 1000. They have a tighter sound than the original Peavey speakers. Really a nice upgrade for less weight, variety and less midrange tone. Hi Tommy, I thought in my Nashville 1000 is a 12 inch Speaker but I'm wrong. I found out my Peavey Nash. 1000 have o...

Micky, thanks. Yes I will check the article. Great idea.

Tucker I guess you right B6. I will correct that. There's a short lever installed switched to B6. Special 5 Nylontuners for the 5 strings correct the pitch. Works great. Thanks for your feedback.

Hello Forummembers, I'm proud owner of a WBS Steelguitar S-10 E9/B6 swichtable tuning. http://www.wbssteelguitars.com/ Any suggestions how I get the main important Western Swing chords (like in C6 tuning)with my pedal actions and Levers I got. Maybe you have ideas what action I miss and I need to ad...

Tommy, thanks for your feedback. I'm really happy with the springreverb mod you wrote here and I'll order the eminence speaker for sure.

I think about to replace the orig.speaker in my Peavey Nashville 1000 with a EMINENCE EPS 12 C 4 OHM.

Would I get a same good result like with the NV112 I can read here a lot ??

Good weight arguments:

SGI S-10
incl. case: 29,5 lb
just steel: 19,8 lb

SGI D-10
incl. case: 41,8 lb
just steel: 30,8 lb

Larry I don't know, but I will check it out tomorrow.

Hi Larry, yes it's sad they stoped the production so early. I'm sure there are a market for very minimized steelguitars. Just the neck the pickup and the mechanic..
and the result is amazing.

Here's my SGI D-10. Great action, nice tone and the best: small and light.. :-) I bought it from a guy in Texas, couple years ago. Beside my main steelguitar ZUM D-10 7/8 I like to play these SGI's. The orig.tuningkeys on the D-10 were not useable. So Wolfgang Bednarz (WBS Steelguitars) he added cus...

No they stopped production. I'm not sure, I think in the late 90's.

The action from my SGI is very easy and precise. I don't have the problem with wiggle or something like that. I think important point: If you catch a seldom SGI. It must have a woodneck.Than there's a chance to build in a E66 George L Pickup.My SGI is always part of my equipment. Just in case if I g...

Here is a pic from last weekend Countrymusic fair in Berlin Germany. I played every show with my light SGI and she worked very well. Years ago I pimped that baby with a George L E66 pickup. Since she sounds like a "adult steel" :D http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1205/366_Didi_CMM_Ber...

Does anybody know how Danny Muhammad can change the guitar and steel so quick? He use picks right ? Do he play guitar with fingerpicks too ?

I still own John Hughey's JCH D-10 he played for Vince. On my weppage (scroll down) you can see some pics from the JCH. http://www.dietmar-waechtler.de/equipment-steel-talks/ I have a old video with John and his JCH and Vince Gill recorded live Austin City Limits. I'll convert the video to DVD as so...
