Hi Jani,

Gee that's a great looking pedal steel you built! I used to gig and hang out with the guy who built my steel and I know what's involved with a "built from scratch" instrument, a LOT of painstaking work!

Congratulations on a job well done, and welcome to a great forum!

but one thing im not so proud of my guitar is that the pedals are to close to each other so i cant use shoes when i play but ill keep it as a home guitar and the other one (when i finaly get it finished) as a gig guitar and maybe ill make some more :lol: its kind of a little hobby :lol:

Have you tried hard-soled mocassins? Maybe they're not popular in Europe, but they have narrower soles.
