Pedal steel and/or amp repair in Missouri?

Post by Brent Haden »

I searched the forums but could not find any information for my question. I have a Sho Bud Professional with the original undercarriage that needs to be set up, adjusted, oiled etc. Scotty's in St. Louis appears to have closed. Does anyone know where I could get this work done in Missouri? I'm in central Missouri, so can go in any direction if there is someone that can do it.

I also have a Peavey Nashville 400 that is acting up. Does anyone know of a good shop for amp repair in Missouri?

Thanks for any info you can provide.

Don Warner in Raytown Missouri is an excellent amp tech. At the other end of I-70, I believe Duane Dunard has a shop in Troy, Mo. I think it's called Jefferson County Music. If I didn't already have a customer's guitar on my bench I'd offer to look at your Bud, but my time is currently QUITE limited, so I don't take two guitars at once.
The Professional is easy to change things around on.
2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)
More amps than guitars, and not many effects

Duane retired. The store in Troy is still open. St Louis area guitarist Steve Pecaro bought the store. I don't think Steve does anything steel related.

Jefferson County music is in the south St. Louis area. Don't know the extent of their repair work, but I know they have had a lot of Sho Buds on display at some of the shows. Good luck What part of central Mo. are you located. Larry

I'm looking at the Jefferson County Music Facebook page and it looks like they are also builder. The pictures look nice. The finishes have a Sho-Bud vib. The guitar are placquered as JCM. Not familiar with the brand but I think I will take a road trip down there. I'm fairly close to there. It is in Imperial Mo. on Old State Rt 21. (If Facebook is current)

Pat Heller worked for Scotty's Music for years and could probably do a good job on your horn, if he's doing that work nowadays.

Johnny Cox has relocated to Nashville and is no longer in SW MO.

Son, we live in a world with walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with steel guitars. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg?

I stand corrected. Or sit as the case might be.

Jefferson County Music is a good little shop. They have had every part I needed so far for my 1970's MSA, and are very helpful. Darryl is the psg repairman/builder and knows his stuff. Their phone number is 636-942-3567. Really nice folks.
