My 2 cents! I have the same amp.
I put the chassis in a session 400
box with the black widow 15" and what
a great sound.It will give you all the
highs and lows including C-6th.
Its as good as it gets.

I changed the chasiss from a Peavey Classic hybrid to a session 400 cab. W/15" BW speaker.Great steel amp! I am wondering if the reverb tank that is on the bottom of the 400 will work with the hybid.The wires are a little short so before adding the wiring I would like to know if it works. Anybo...

There is one more .It was the nightmare

used on other steels. My 2 cents.

Hi! Jim; Hope to see you at the jam!
Would like to see and hear that new
MSA U-12.Man that should be a super steel.
Well I guess I'll just be happy with my [2] old Sho~Buds I'm too old to invest now.

Thanks John for the info. I did'nt thant The SHO~BUD cross-over was built in an early and late model.Mine is a 77 or78 Mine is a pretty good steel. Holds tune good. I reverst the necks and could use the blank racks for knee levers.Also it was cast for the F lever all you had to do was add it. Good s...

I saw the Sho~Bud that Hal was playing on the show last night.It was a Sho~Bud cross over. I saw the trip lever.It is a Bud like I have. [in storage] You would'nt know by the way he handled it. Just kind of surprised to see him on that Bud. LEE ALLEN [2] Sho~ Buds and a sore back

Bob! They were great lookng steels.
I owned two of them. String eaters a
nightmare to set up a nightmare to keep in
tune.You need a back like a two ton truck
to lift them.I think thos Miller steels
were made out of pig iron.Very HEAVY!
Just my 2 cents worth.
[2] Sho~Buds Lee Allen

I would like to say that I needed some parts for my Bud. I called Mr.Bill Ray and he was very congenial had the parts. He sent them out Tues. noon and Thurs. noon I had them.I just have to say that I have never talked to a nicer man. Thank's Bill AK/A Rayline Steel Guitars. SUPER SERVICE !! [2 Sho~ ...

I had two Miller Customs.
A 1964 and a 1966. Good looking and good
sounding.A nightmare to keep in tune.
A string eater. My Advice let it go
and there are good modern steels out there.

I saw curly playing his Sho~Bud on the
Wilburn Bros show.What a great tone he
got out of that Bud.The sound of thos
Buds are often tried to be copy'd but
never duplicated. Was great picken and
great tone.

I was wondering how many members owned
and played Miller Custom Pedal steels?
I had 2 of them a 1964 and a 1966.
They had 7 pedals and no levers.
They were heavy but had a good sound.
