The Steel Guitar Forum

I found a ZB 11 string 3 pedal 4 knee lever steel. It is old and not well taken care of. The pedals have the jimmy Day type setup. I don't think there is much value there, but I don't know. The price is $1000 which seems way high for now days. Any info on this steel would be great, thanks

Pictures would help. An 11 string ZB with 3+4 would be a nice steel if set up right.

If it's all there, and the body's not trashed, it's an okay investment. The ZB is a kind of unique animal, but they can be made to play well. Some of the prettiest guitars I've ever seen are old ZB's, with the "cat-ear" headstocks and changers.

Pictures - post pictures!!

Unless its battered, I would give $1000 in a heartbeat...
Matter of fact, if you don't buy it, kindly PM me and I will... bob
