I need help in getting started with my Fender twin deck Stringmaster. 8 strings on each neck. I have the necks tuned to C6th and E7th.
I can only find instruction books for 6 string instruments.
Please advise.

Just ordered a copy. I have a lap steel that has been lying around for too long, about time I did something with it apart from dust it.
This tuition course is good news.

Having read the latest comments relating to potential sale offerings of Mavericks both privately and on eBay. I felt that I had to bring you all up to date with the progress on my little beauty. Unfortunately for me, communication broke down between myself ans Mr John Coop and I did not receive a qu...

Hello Ernie, I have been shooting traditional English Longbow for nearly a year now. I tried Recurve and compound bows with all of their site aids but have found the longbow to be more challenging. At 71 years young, perhaps I may have left it a little late in life to expect to reach a competition s...

Hello Marc, "Hmmmm Hmmmm"

I guess that you think that I am a little mad to be contemplating this upgrade. If you could only hear the sound produced by this little PSG and that is only chording, I think that you might even be tempted.
Like to read your comment.
All the Best, Eric

Further progress has been made although I must admit that the majority of my playing has been on the Fender Sho~Bud. The Maverick project is still very much alive. I have received an email from John Coop showing the upgrading of Mr Ken Farrows maverick. This is a beautiful upgrade with a new changer...

I have just sent off my payment via PayPal. I have been waiting for such a publication as this to enable me to move on. I am a beginner on the PSG, having played non pedal for a couple of years using a Fender Stringmaster. Looking at the proposed layout of the "Guide" I can see that it wil...

Thank you Ken & Earnest,

I am not that technically knowledgable but I will pass on your comments to the repair tech when I locate one in my area.

I have sent an email to "customerservice@peavey.com but as yet have received no reply.

I have a 75 watt Peavey Studio Pro 112. It produces a very clean sound for my PSG. I have this problem. It produces a vey loud "Crack" like a capacitor discharge, when I switch the amp off. I have turned down the volume also the reverb and unplugged the jack from the PSG. All to no avail t...

I am looking for knee lever assemblys to fit a Sho-Bud maverick.
Mine at the moment does not have any knee levers, just the three pedals.
I would like to fit two levers at least.

Help and advice would be most appreciated.
