Looking for a Zumsteel Stage One or similar

Post by Håkon Kjenstad »

Hello people!
I’m currently on the lookout for my first pedal steel guitar. I saw several people recommend the Zumsteel Stage One and think it sounds beautiful. Are anyone here selling one, or something similar below 1500$? I live in Norway, so preferably somewhere close, but anywhere goes.

All the best

Welcome HÃ¥kon.

Stage One steels are very popular and used ones usually sell in about one hour on this Forum. It's not easy to buy one.

Since shipping costs to Norway are so high, you might have better luck finding a steel that's within your budget that's already in Scandanavia or Europe. For example, WBS in Germany makes an inexpensive steel called the "Basic" that's very similar to the Stage One:

You might try posting on the Scandanavian Steel Guitar Forum:

There's a great steel player in Bergen, Dag Wolf, and if you send him a private message here he may be able to help you find a steel:

Or Per Berner, in Skövde, Sweden may have ideas on finding a steel guitar closer to you:

Or... you might just get lucky finding something here.
