I am sorry the link I included doesn't work. To see the pictures, just look on Craigslist DFW under Pedal Steel Guitar under for sale - musical instruments and you should find it listed under Pedal Steel Guitar Carpsteel Custom.

Thanks Jim for making the link work.
Guys this is truly a custom steel, real wood and steel frame not plastic.

[Mark Greenway]

Jay, why don't you just keep that one and sell your beautiful red lacquered Rains back to the guy you bought it from?

He would love to have it back.

[Jay Noel]

Mark I would if I wasn't so much in love with the Rains, but if I ever do want to sell it, you will be the first to know.

For those of you who are interested:
I have lowered the price on Craigslist to $2300 cash.

If someone here will contact me before I get a job ( I am currently unemployed) I will take $2200 cash.

This is a perfect steel for gigs where you travel by air, it is light-weight, but is heavy where it counts. Stays tuned incredibly well and with George-L pickup sounds like an Emmons type tone.

For those of you who are interested.

I have now lowered the price to $2000 CASH.

[Jay Noel]

$2000 cash is still the number. This is a quality steel guitar, not a student model. Great for someone who needs a lighter guitar for a quick gig. Tone is impeccable and tuning is very accurate. Mechanics are smooth as glass. I am a big man and find a single neck a bit small for me, but any normal sized, or small person would be right at home with this steel.

Do you have additional photos? Specifically undercarriage? Any idea of the total weight?
