I tried the Joyo pedal. It had a great OD tone, but not so great for clean. IMO. I also bought a ToneX pedal. There’s some nice settings. But I found it was too cumbersome for using live on the bandstand. This TC Electronic pedal works well for me. It is simple and gets it done. I’m sure there are o...

I got a Broughton Low Pass filter pedal and put it in front of the Deluxe Combo pedal. That really warmed it up and no hiss. Sounds great. I run it into a Bose S1 Pro. It works great.

Dennis. Make sure to turn OFF the bright switch (in the back) on the Deluxe Combo pedal.

I recently bought this pedal. A TC Electronic Ampworx Combo Deluxe 65. I was looking for something to use as part of an ampless rig. I had already bought a Tonex and liked it a lot, but I found the menus and knobs a bit difficult to tweak on the bandstand. I find the Combo Deluxe much easier to dial...

Brendan. Run ! They are great. For setup, drive it to Oceanside California and have Jim Palenscar set it up for you. Or ship it to Ricky.

Another vote for the Dispatch Master. I’ve used it for years. It’s served me well.

I have a mid 60’s Stringmaster. The logo on the case is getting beat up. Does anyone make a repro logo like this?

I bought a Hatton case for my Fender Stringmaster. It was a disappointment because he used screws instead of rivits to attach the hardware to the case. The screws would come loose and fall out. Kevin’s solution: he told me to put Gorilla Glue on the screws. I sold that case quickly. I prefer rivits....

Kevin. Thanks for this suggestion. I got one and it works really well with my Tom Bradshaw reso pedal. Better than my old cat-can lap steel.

Red dirt cases. I have several and I love them.

Note: they are on sale on Amazon Prime today and tomorrow.

My favorite E tuning for 8-string is this (low to high):

E, F#, G#, B, C#, E, G#, F#

Thanks Doug. I ordered some from Sweetwater. Might save a wrist injury.

Red Dirt Cases made split cases for my Emmons SKH. The cases are fantastic.

I like the TT-12 and the Telonics Neo12 equally well. Both are very lightweight.

I just bought a road case for my Fender Stringmaster from Red Dirt Cases. It turned out excellent and fits perfectly.

I’m building a double neck from Jimmie’s kits. It will be an 8-string Stringmaster on the rear neck and a 6-string Valco style (string thru) on the front neck. I call it my “Master Blaster”.

Please close. I found one.

WTB 10-string BJS bar in good condition. 7/8” diameter, 3 3/8” long, with or without birthstone

For my 8-string Stringmaster, I like the Shubb SP-2
