The Steel Guitar Forum

Hi Steelers; I have been looking to buy a D8 non-pedal guitar. I have a chance to buy a Fender Stringmaster D8, with 22.5" scale. I'm not sure if I should try to find one with the optional 24.5" or 26" scales, or just go with the 22.5" Please help me out. What are the advantages/...
