Has anyone else seen this guitar for sale online at Music Go Round. Any ideas of what it is? It looks interesting. They only offer a 48 return policy so I'm going to pass on this one

It looks like something someone put together from a bunch of different parts. Without detailed photos, I can't say more, or recommend it for purchase. Could be decent, could be crap.

Since you're in Virginia, check out the steels at Billy Cooper's in Orange Va

It looks like someone has built a 1 of a kind Steel Guitar.

I wonder what is with the Front Apron on the Guitar, They only show pictures of the back apron.

I wonder if there is a case with the guitar. With that large electronic box on right corner of the guitar it would be a job to design and build a case for the guitar.

The pedal bar has pedal brackets that have a MSA Classic look. The different length pedals looks and is unusual.

Some pictures of the underneath mechanics may tell the rest of the story.

High price for an unknown.

Music-Go-Round isn't known for knowledgeability about pedal steel. I consider them a pawnshop.

Stopped in. Still there and has "Made for CLC by Sho-Bud," scribbled on it. Also has "Sho-Bud 1989" and "Sho-Bud 1991" scribbled underneath. Random raises and lowers per string? Bride of Frankensteel?

It's got the cool ashtray, but they wouldn't sell that piece...
