I'm new on the forum. My name is Jean-Marie Raffault and I am french.
I have been looking here for about 13 or 14 years and finaly joined your great family. My english spoken is not very good but I hope you will be "cool" with me.
I play pedal steel since 1999 and I own four D10, a beautiful Carter lacquered, a Fulawka, an Emmons push pull lacquered and the last one, a Jackson Madison 63 which is fantastic.
It's a real pleasure to be a part of this great group of people ! :D

Welcome Jean-Marie. Looking forward to your input here and your perspective on pedal steel from your country.

Those are some nice pedal steels you have too.
