Lil' Izzy

I ordered a Lil' Izzy to use with my CARTER 8 X 8. Mr Baker monitored the shipping and decided that things were fouled up. He made me a 2nd IZZY at no charge and sent it to me. It arrived in time for me to practice an hour with it and use it on the gig that night. The IZZY made my CARTER (Wallace Tr...

D-10 Carter 8X8

This is a great deal on a Great CARTER Steel! I know cause I have one just like it in black. The additional knee levers do not make it more difficult to play, they give the intermediate level C6th player some additional classic sounds "RIGHT THERE" without practice or study. Sound like an ...

Show us your Show Pro

Hi Ken! We are lucky that Jeff at Show Pro was able to secure flame maple like that to build our guitars. I live close to the Paul Reed Smith (PRS) guitar factory in Maryland. They go to great lengths to find find exotic woods to build their beautiful instruments. In addition to the "Eye" ...

This is an unbelievable instrument. I have made new friends since I purchased it. My playing has gotten better because this is so easy to play and I am motivated to practice.

Wanted to Buy D-10

I have a GFI D-10 8 X 8 (Black ), that I have used as my back up. It has Emmons set up (E's raise and lower on the left). Pedal and knee lever action is quiet and smooth. My primary "gig" steel is a Carter with a Airline Case (has wheels built in). I have too much equipment, or else I woul...

Praise Your CARTER

I just picked up a new SHOW PRO 8X8. I have spent all my time playing it since it arrived BUT I am not in a hurry to sell my CARTER 9 X 8 (I had to remove the 9th foot pedal because I simply could make the adjustment from playing 8 pedals for 35 years). The Carter has never given me a moments troubl...

Little Walter Twin 50. Like New.

I Received this on Thursday. With out a doubt, it is everything I was looking for in a Pedal Steel (or Guitar Amp). I have been playing it for 2 days. If you want an amp that "breaks up" and sounds raunchy, you will need to run a compressor or a Distortion pedal in line. This is all clean ...

Pro guitar at a reasonable price. You will not believe how smooth the pedal and knee action is. Everything fits into place perfectly. You would never regret buying this axe.

The Sound is in the Right Hand

I believe the majority of us are now (or at some time in the past used a PEAVEY AMP). PEAVEY went to the mat to make sure steel players had an amp that was suited to our very unique instrument. Also, PEAVEY always looked out for the working musician and what he/she could afford to pay for an amp/PA/...

Tune Down to E Flat

I did it back in the 70's because I did lots of side man jobs and all the singers with acoustics were doing it ALSO they were CAPO crazy. The E flat tuning seemed to work out. There was also a gimmick for playing banjo licks using the 4th string on the 4th fret. Oh - I forgot the best part. I had th...

ABC pedal set up. I also like the E's raised and lowered on the left knee levers. It took a while when I changed over from Sho-Bud.
