The Steel Guitar Forum

Hi folks,

some guys were very kind helping me setting up my old Sho-Bud D9. But I´m now shure that it will stay at home and I won´t taking it around for playing.
So I´m lookig for a used Fender 1000. That would fit my needs perfectly.
Years ago I had a blonde 10 pedal model from Gruhn Guitars but then I wanted a "real" pedal steel - thought I needed a "real" Pedal Steel and I sold it.

I would like to have a used one with 8 or 10 pedals.
It should be complete (as here are NO parts available) and work, but no matter of colour or cosmetics.

If someone had one that he do not need anymore please let me know.

Thanks and best regards
Benny Ballweg

@Russ
Yes, I asked Al but there is a sale pending on this guitar.

@b0b
Thanks for your offer Bob, but that´s far out of my limit so for that I wrote used

Thanks

Hi Benny,
viel Glück bei Deiner Suche.
Habe im Sommer eine '64 Fender 1000 für mich gefunden, hier in .de. Du mußt bei den Fender 400 und 1000 mit den Mensurlänge aufpassen je nach Stimmung, die Du nutzen möchtest.

Beste Grüße
Jörg

I have 2 fender 1000's both complete. One in similar shape to bob's for 1300.00, and another one a little more worn for 1000.00. Also have a fender 400 for 800.00.
