I think I understand the issue with the sweep... With regard to the 'low profile', I'm assuming that's so that you have a good access to the knee levers.. But here's the thing - I'm short! So maybe a low profile pedal wouldn't be such a good thing for me. I'll have to try a few different pedals and ...

Thanks for that, guys. Twayn, I'm wondering is the EB Junior much different from the regular EB that I already have? Apart from the fact that the string is broken (but fixable ) I've been satisfied with it. But I've read posts here to the effect that it's not optimal design for pedal steel so I was ...

Hi there, I was wondering if anybody knew anything abou the Carter volume pedals that are sold as part of accessory pack to Carter Starter: 'CARTER PEDAL STEEL ACCESSORY PACK A great add-on for the Carter Starter pedal steel. This pack includes a Carter 500k volume pedal, 3' cord, 10' cord, 7/8"...

Thanks guys and thanks for both sides of the ebay coin!

Hi there,

This may have been discussed before but I see that the Cindy Cashdollar instructional video uses an 8 string instrument. Does anybody know, can you use the video with a 6 string?

Thanks a bunch

HI there, I'm thinking about purchasing an instrument, and, as far as I can figure out, some of the music I like most (e.g. Bob Wills and Hank Williams stuff) seems to have been played on a non-pedal steel in a sixth-based tuning of some kind. I think I saw a comment somewhere on the site to the eff...

Hi there, I was thinking about buying a Carter Starter in the US and bringing it back to Canada with me. I'll be down there on business. The thing is - I believe it comes in a gig bag, not a hard case, so I'm not sure how I'd get it back. Any chance of getting it on as carry-on? I'm thinking it's go...
