Book project: need a hi-res image of a Bigsby pedal steel

Post by John Troutman »

Hi all,

I am searching for an attractive, professional quality hi-res image of a Bigsby pedal steel, either double or triple neck. I would like to include such an image in the color plate section of a book that I have authored and that will be published by the University of North Carolina Press in May of 2016. The book focuses on the early history of our instrument, from its origins in Hawaiʻi through the mid-twentieth century. It is entitled, Kika Kila: How the Hawaiian Steel Guitar Changed the Sound of Modern Music. If you own the rights to such an image and would be willing to allow its publication in the book, please get in touch with me and send me your image. If we can include it in the book, I will send you a hardcopy gratis upon the book's publication.

Thanks much for your time! Please contact me with your photos off list, at lowery66@gmail.com.

Thanks y'all!

Best wishes,

John
