Want to buy a used pedal steel guitar

Post by Al Wiebe »

Hi
I'm a beginner and I want to buy a used pedal steel and I live in the Pacific Northwest (White Rock, BC.) I would like to purchase one that is anywhere around Vancouver, BC to Seattle, Wa. I don't know very much about them but I've owned a Maverick in the past and I would like to get a better model. Not sure what model or features.
thks :)

Al, I have a nice MSA Universal 12 string with 8 pedals and 5 knees that I will part with. I live down on Whidbey Island so not too far away from you if you want to come see and play the steel.

I have a Sierra Artist (3 floor pedals and 2 knee levers) and also an MSA Classic,with 3 floor pedals and 4 knee levers. Both are in good condition and very solid. They are listed in the "instruments for sale" section. Or you can email me.Thanks,Gary

Hi Gary,

I can't make it down to Sacremento and I just can't buy a guitar without seeing and playing it - sorry.

Hi Steve, These seem to be going for anywhere from $1500 to 1800 with case several sets of strings and all. This one also has a pedigree since it was made for Junior Knight. I am also open to trades towards a Dobro or good lap steel. Al does have first right of refusal since he posted first.

Thanks - Phil

Re: Universal Guitar

Hi Phil,
I have been reading a bit (I had no idea what a Universal guitar is) and I am going to pass on yours. I am looking for an S10 3 x4 or SD10 3x4 - something that is just the pro model of the Maverick that I partially understood. I am also looking to spend no more than $1200 so that also puts me out of your area. However, looks like you have someone else interested so good luck. I'm sorry I wasn't more specific but I'm learning.
thks for your time
Al

Hi
I've arranged to buy Loren Bayle's Marlen S10 when he gets his new axe fixed so please close this posting. I want to thank all the steeler's who have given me their time and knowledge - it was really appreciated.

I look forward to getting my new Steel.

thks
Al
