Mr Wheelhouse, that's a good looking guitar.
I know my playing is a bit pitchy, but at least my tone sucks

Here's my latest aquisition, it's an old Marlen keyless S-12, the only one I've ever seen. It has 4FP and 4KL. It's currently at Billy Cooper's in Orange, Va. having my setup on it. I should have it back in a couple of weeks........Here's a shot...JH in Va.

Well for my anniversary "Sept 1st" and birthday present "Sept 14th"
I got this 2 weeks ago, a custom built Rittenberry, and I love this one.
I've had many steels thru the years, but this is the best I've ever had.

And for those that prefer a Black Steel, this is my other one

I must confess my humble little Rogue lap steel pales in comparison to all the lovely instruments on display, but here she is with my little Pignose 7-100...

Not pretty (neither the steel nor the Steele), but I've been told by many other players that this guitar sounds amazing.

Just too cool, Chas! Can't wait until the next CD sees the light of day. You're an inspiration to (some of) us!
And I still find the pedal steel fascinates people who seem to have no knowledge of it, and even those who have.
