I don't know how much interest this will create, however; for everyone’s info. I just ordered a new and to the best of my understanding, the first of it’s exact configuration! After a short departure from the non-pedal steel community, I'd like to announce that, (as Jack Nickleson said): “I'm Back”! The other day I ordered a T~10 Short (22½”) Scale Remington Steelmaster in the Natural Ash finish. I have made variations in my (3)-Tunings that I used to use on my T-8 Custom. My tunings will now l©©k like this! {Something a little different from the Norm!}
#3 = E9/13: E~B~D~E~F#~G#~B~C#~E~G#
#2 = C-Diatonic: C~E~F~G~A~B~C~E~d~f
#1 = C6/A7: Lo-A~C~C#~E~G~A~C~E~b~d
The first two tunings are JB-Tunings with a few Chromatics on top! I'm really looking forward to this new guitar and have wanted a T~10 for a long time for these special-tuning purposes! I hope someone can post some pictures for me, when it finally arrives!  At least for a while, it will be a one-of-a-kind Steelmaster! (T~10) And, what they say is true! When you call Herb Remington’s number, he does always answer the phone personally¡

No pics of T-10s, but here's a pic of Jody playing HowardR's 8-8-10 Steelmaster.
So just imagine all 3 necks look like the front neck . . |
