Check out this YouTube of Ray Price. Necessity was certainly the mother of invention.

TC,

Thanks for sharing. If you watch the tuning pan you can see the string moving. Too cool. Looks like just one pedal moving the two middle strings.

And when the song was over, it was OVER. No RADIO tag. Beautiful.

The old "plungers through the keyhead" idea was very popular back in the '50s. Very Happy

I have been using a friends T8 Stringmaster that has a palm lever system on the top neck. Part of it is missing,but it is changeable and tuneable. The tag on it reads..MULTI-HARP-TRIPLEX made by H.HISE MANUFACTURING Co. in Chicago. When pedal steel started getting popular everybody tried to adapt a pedal to existing steels. My dad drilled a hole through the pan on his Fender D6 and attached a pedal with a chain. It worked but it sure broke strings. We thought we had died and went to heaven when we got the 400.

My '39 Gibson Grande Console had two pedals on it at one time. Gotta bunch of holes to fill when I get around to it's restoration!
