The British Steelies Society

Hi guys!

I'm just looking for some advice. I have just bought a CS (I know everyone will disapprove!! but it was the only financially feasible option!). However, there is nothing attached to one of the knee levers apparently - essentially it has been disabled. I'm wondering if there is any way of fixing this? I'm not a very "handy man" so if anybody could recommend somebody in the North of England, or if it is a relatively simple job, give me advice on how to do it myself.

It'd be greatly appreciated

Furthmore, any playing tips would be great I've been playing about 6/7 months and am enjoying it very much!

Yours sincerely, Brad (the 19 year old novice!)

P.S. I am waiting for the Steel to be delivered to unfortunately I have no pictures or anything

Also, I believe C-Starters cannot be modified, but surely, if it has been taken off, it can be put back on?

Thank you for your reply John! I have in fact seen your videos on YouTube already and they helped me a lot! I'm on a Maverick at the moment (oops!!! Thin ice here, right? Haha)

Thanks for the information about Ronnie, I'll definitely be calling on him if I need to. I saw a Steel of his a few weeks ago at a gig. It was beautiful!

Hope you're well John. Thank you again!
