The Steel Guitar Forum

What a Pretty Steel.I have to say Bob is one of the best people to work with. he kept in contact with me all the way. plus sent along a few goodies. #1 in my Book. now I cant wait to dig in. I only wish i could tune it to a E. I play guitar and it seems it would be easier to learn. But I want that country sound from a C6 so I will tape the chords on the fret board for now....lol

There you are... I saw you in Pedal Steel. A6 is probably better than E6... if you go for 3 on top. C6 is 'whineyer' sounding than A6, in that the strings are heavier for the same role. Doesn't really matter, you get to where you can think in C pretty quick. Enjoy!

BOB MAKES A FINE INSTERMENT, BEEN HAPPY WITH MY 8 STRING,CONSOLE. HE WOULD BE THE MAN I WOULD GO TO IF I WANTED ANOTHER ONE. TROUBLE WITH BOB'S INSTERMENTS THERE SO WELL MADE YOU DON'T NEED MORE THEN ONE. NOW IF YOUR UP GRADING FROM 6 TO 8 OR FROM LAP TO CONSOLE THEN LIKE I SAY HE'S THE MAN I'D CALL.

I also highly recommend Bob and Melbert steel guitars.

I am very pleased with the 8 string I purchased from him.

He is a real gentleman who handcrafts fine instruments at a reasonable cost.

who would I contact to buy a Melbert. Thanksl

Contact Bob direct. He will take care of you. melbertguitars@gmail.com
