Stage One, S10, 3x4, perfect beginner pedal steel

Post by Matthew Tansey »

I've got a Stage One I bought a year and a half ago. Its in great shape and it's served me well. I'm looking to sell it because I got into playing dobro and don't play it much anymore. It's a great guitar for beginners or people looking for a light reliable guitar for travel and gigs. I just had some work done on the case, but it could use a little reinforcing.

As you can tell from the Stage One website, they're $950 new and thats what I paid a year and a half ago. I'll let her go for $900 and you save 50 bucks and the sales tax. If you're looking for a volume pedal I could throw my Morley in for a little bit extra. I've got a few more pics of the guitar, if you want to have a closer look. Shoot me a message if you're interested.

these are the best guitars to learn with and great to gig with. I dont even break it down, at 23# just carry it right in! I gig a few times a week with mine.

...Not just a guitar for a beginner

Post by Dale Hansen »

Mike Douchette will readily testify that the 'Stage One' is much more than a little ol' starter guitar.

It's his preferred, 'go-to' guitar for stage, and studio.

Here's Mike, seated behind his 'Stage One', holding back a stream of tears, while soaking in a deafening round of applause. Or,..maybe he's just hamming it up during a sound check. You can never be sure, with Mike.

I added a volume pot and treble bleed to mine. Oh, and the black ones sound best.

@Dale... lol... that's my "My people!" pose...

And that guitar was the first one I had, bought used from a Forum member. The newer ones sound even better...

... black or not... ;-)

The other thing about these is that they hold their value so well, even a new one you'll only lose 50 or a 100$ or so if you sell it.
