Yeh, I have thought long and hard about this. I played 15 years professionally and layed off 19 years from playing anything. I figure I am going to focus on a single instrument from here on out... guitar. If I need a steel in my music I'll hire someone who can really play.
BTW, I am amazed that noone has picked this up... it is a bargain IMHO.

Gary-I sent you an email-Please send pics-I'd like to know what color it is and approx when (during ZB production) it was made-I have owned three ZB guitars-One of them was a two tone red/natural maple with the earlier type logo and earlier type pedals (which were also fashioned into the knee levers)

Hello all: Several of you have shown an interest in this guitar and I appreciate that. However, noone as of yet has expressed an interest in buying it. Tomorrow, I am taking it to a collector/dealer for a consignment, possibly a trade in on a beautiful Santa Cruz acoustic. I would much rather sell for cash and have the leverage to buy my guitar no strings attached (no pun intended ). So if any of you are seriously interested in purchasing a classic ZB, serialNo 102, for $1100, please contact me before tomorrow 11:00AM PST.
PS. case is included.
Best regards to all,
Gary Grubb

Lot of lookers... no takers so far. The main problem seems to be the "sight unseen" situation we have being remote. The best I can do on that score is to have Tom adjust it and vouch for its condition. I am assuming that Tom will not overrate it as he has his own reputation to protect.
Here is a brief description of the ZB pedal steel and its general condition.
Double Neck 10 string (only E9 strung at this time), blond with dark trim. Seven floor pedal, three knee levers. The body is setup to accomodate extra pedal & lever should you require. Strings are over 20 years old... I'd change them
This steel has character in that the finish is crazing, i.e hairline cracks.
On one end I engraved my identification with an etcher. Back in those days I didn't think I'd ever sell an instrument. Tom says this will come out with polishing if this is a problem for you.
After Tom is finished I expect it will play smooth as silk.

I just wanted those, who are interested in this guitar, to know that I am only adjusting the undercarriage on this guitar. Those who have seen my restoration work should understand that I'm not restoring this guitar; I'm simply making all the changes function properly and with appropriate ease. This guitar has 3 knee levers and 7 floor pedals. The E9th neck will have the Emmons configuration on the A, B, and C pedals. The two left knee levers will have the E's to F changes and the E's to Eb changes. I don't recommend these changes for the left leg, but they are already there and I don't intend to change them. The one right knee lever (RKR) will lower the 2nd string on the E9th From D# to D, and will lower the 3rd string (C) on the C6th neck to B.
The remaining 4 floor pedals will operate the C6th neck and will be assembled in the common C6th configuration. Since there are only 4 pedals for this neck, there will not be a pedal to actuate the A strings (4th and 8th strings) to the common B pitch.
