Stage One NO PROBLEM!

Post by Dave O'Brien »

I would not want anyone to think the Stage One is not sturdy or capable of touring. I am out with mine, 2000 miles in the baggage hold, two dozen shows, and yet to break a string or adjust anything. I really enjoy the feel of the pull release mechanism. Yes I miss not having a Universal or D-10 sometimes but not when I have to carry it. Oh, the stock pickup is excellent as well.

Interesting that the "Stage One Problem" post gets more than twice the views as my "Stage One NO PROBLEM". :\

My Stage One is a fantastic little guitar.
Certainly the best steel you'll ever buy new at $1000
and I agree, that pickup is very sweet !

Good to hear all the positive feedback around the Stage One, I'm very excited for mine to arrive..ordered about a month ago..looking at delivery sometime in January hopefully. Wood grain top, black front/back.

Dave,
My intention wasn't to bash the Stage One, it's a great guitar for the money and is perfect for what I'm looking to do with it.
I just had a problem with MY particular Stage One and reached out to the community for answers, which I got.

they seem to be a good steel as long as you have no
need to change the copedent or experiment with changes that may make you unique.
