Looking for Beginners Pedal Steel

Postby hillbillyrid » Wed Apr 13, 2016 3:59 pm

Hi everyone,

So I'm looking to start my pedal steel venture and I'm after an instrument that will be good to me for a fair few years to come. I have been recommended to start with a 4 lever and 3 pedal combination S10.

Any help or instruments for sale please message me.

I'm new to this so all help appreciated here.

Thanks!

Richard

As we always advise - have any guitar checked out by a player that you can trust, maybe someone on here. Guitars come up for sale on here and the seller is usually known in steel guitar circles.
The S-10, 3pedals + 4kneelevers is the standard starting point for the typical country sound. If you get a decent enough guitar the 4+3 may well see you right through a career!
Let's know which area you live in and you'll probably be able to make contact within travel distance. Many of us are happy to show you guitar(s) and talk you through what to look for without any sale in mind. :guitar: :guitar: :guitar:

Hi Richard
Did you get sorted out?
If not my ShoBud could be suitable.
I'm in Sheffield too (Dore) so easy to come and see if you want. Come and have a go even if you're not interested at £900.
Cheers
John
