Hi a newbie here.

I would be very interested in a cheap steel to get me going again anything will do as I am a novice steelie (already have an old one that needs working on)so if anyone has got one for sale or knows of one I would be much appreciated
Cheers

Hi Andrew,

I have a decent steel, definitely not a student model, built by Bernie Curnow in Cornwall. I have owned it for about 2 years or a little more but upgraded this year to a Williams Universal 12 stringer, so it's surplus to requirements and I should move it on. I'm asking what I paid for it - although I have made some improvements to it. £800 includes a case which has seen better days but I have strengthened it and rebuilt the interior. It'll protect the steel just fine. Ask John Davis about it if you want, I bought it from him originally. It is set up Jimmy Day/Gordon Huntley style, which I think is superior to the Emmons/Nashville way, but I can re-rod it for you if you want.

Hi all,
Thanks for your messages and replies, but I am now sorted out with a ZB s10 thanks to Jim Gibson.
I will be in touch when I need more info, I do look at this site most days as it is a great source of information and knowledge.

Thanks again

Andy
