I am new to the forum.. I found a national double neck steel guitar at an estate sale this weekend. It is in really good shape, and I looked up the dates and I think it is a 54 model .It has the adjustable steel legs, and I will post pictures of it when I learn how to in this forum. I am an experienced guitar player, I play the blues and rockabilly, and have been a pro for 20 years, but have been playing for over 40 . I was in a band with one of the best pedal steel players I have ever heard, named Mel Stephens. He passed away last year, I am sorry to say. He showed me a little on his pedal steel, but I have no idea how to play or even tune this one. I will probably sell it, but I trust other players to tell me what to do with it. Guys that have been playing them for a while are going to know a lot more than I do. so, pictures coming soon. It does have the original case, and looks to be complete minus one side pick guard.
