Post by Kevin Eldridge »

Getting ready to move, and really need to find a good home for this beautiful steel. I don't have need, or room:( Willing to let it go for $2,000. This guitar is in Great condition, 2009 model. 7+5 pedals/levers.

Copedent?
Zum SD-12 Black, Zum SD-12 Burly Elm Several B-Bender Tele's and a lot of other gear I can't play.

I spent half my money on gambling, alcohol and wild women. The other half I wasted. W.C. Fields

It is the standard factory set up, I was new to universal when I ordered this steel, so I kept it simple.

Kevin,

That's a gorgeous guitar! Almost the same as my Carter S-10 C6th with 5 and 6!

It should sell quickly!

Best,
Andy Eder

Andy, I appreciate it! I hate to get rid of it, as it is an amazing guitar. I just don't have a need to keep 2 steels anymore.

Ollin....I have the "tripilet" sister over here in England. If I had the money I'd jump on that axe. I've altered my copedant a "little" as we all tend to do from time to time :D Bud built them good :)

If I didn't have the exact same guitar I would be all over this. It looks like a fine guitar.

Even though I have a SD-12 Zum the Carter is my go to guitar for playing gigs. It's lighter and takes up less real estate on the bandstand.

Ollin...only today I received the "old style" Carter decal from Al Brisco at Steel Guitars of Canada. I just fancied a change back to the way it looked when I got her in the year 2000. It was used when I got her, by a guy who had never EVER played a steel before...so he ordered a Universal :? go figure!! We have similar equiptment too...I have a Tele B-bender and lots of other guitars, 2 Roland Cube 80XL's a Nashville 400 in seperate cabinets with a neo mag B/W speaker. Most of the time I link just one Cube from speaker out into the cab with the neo 15" speaker....wonderfull spread of sound :D Al is a good guy to deal with ... Have a great Christmas.

Still available?

Kevin, I'm very interested. I have an old 1972 D 12 MSA with the inside neck removed. I play a Bb6. Very similar to the universal tuning you have on your Carter. Problem is I'm not getting any younger and the MSA weighs an absolute ton.
Very interested in something lighter at this point in my life! Regards, Jim
