The Steel Guitar Forum

I just sold one, so I'm down to 8. 7 of them have pedals. b0b, it's not a case of what we 'need'. Tell Mrs. Lee the next time she buys a new dress, "Did you really NEED another dress?" She'll probably say "Yes". When that finally sinks in, duck for cover. I use each guitar for a specific gig most of the time. If I'm not working with someone who will be doing a lot of 6th stuff, I use a single and leave the 'heavyweights' at home. Lately I've been working with Gospel groups in the area, so out comes the S-12 E9/B6/A6 Uni. Sometimes it's just fun to play a different guitar. I don't spend any money on anything else to speak of, don't have car payments, mortgage payments are reasonable. I'd rather have more guitars!! I've been using the same 2 amps for 20 and 22 years respectively, so I've saved a lot of bucks over the years in that department. My 'newest' (most-recently-built) guitar is from 1985. . .all the others were built before that!!

Very interesting pic and very nice stable of guitars. I like that two tone Sho-bud, it reminds me of my old "Professional" I once
had. To think that its "the tip of the iceberg" is beyond
my ability to reason.

Are all those in the picture really yours T.C.?

Gary Shepherd,

Playing that one steel has really put a smile on your friend's face!

Hope you get your 2nd steel, but don't let him hog all the fun!

Well, I'm down to 7 pedal steels and two non pedal steels, and a few other toys.

I haven't posted this in a while, but here is my favorite trio, and a few amps etc. in the background.

WOW!!

And I thought I had Gear Acquisition Syndrome bad! Sheesh.

Four PSGs (Sho-Bud Pro D-10, Sho-Bud Pro1 S10, ZB S-10, Fender 400). Four non-pedal steels. Four basses. 27 6- and 12- stringers. Two mandolins. One b**jo, one oud.

I bought 2 of the same guitar brand so that what I practiced with, will have the same feel on stage with the other guitar. There's compromising that way. I do have 4 great! steel amps. Each has it's on personality in tone.

I have two old Shobud S-10s, a Kline U-12, and a GFI. I'll be getting a Performance one of these days soon, so the GFI will be ebayed!
