Steel Guitar Builder

this you sold on ebay? Yes, I did. It was a blast to play, but, now it's gone. However, I'm building another one right now, basically the same thing, with a few minor changes. This guitar design, which I will call 'LaPedal-6', once I refine the design a bit, will be a item for sale from my http://w...

Its interesting to see the foot pedal arrangement you have on this guitar , could you explain it more and how it works ? Russ Pedal 1: Raises string 3 & 5(G#) 1/2 step to A Pedal 2: Raises string 2 (B) to C#. Pedal 3: Lowers string 4 (E) to D for dominant 7th Pedal 4: Lowers string 1 (high E) to D#...

That's what I like to see , something different rather than another clone , post more please .

Hi Wayne.... pretty impressive work. Any chance of posting a picture or diagram of your changer and how it works? Cheers, Mac Here's a little diagram I drew up real quick, not to scale or anything, just gives an idea of what's going on. http://innovativeguitars.com/PedalSteel-7/PS-7-RaiseLower-Syst...

Currently, I am building a 7 string pedal steel guitar, made entirely from aluminum (except for the fretboard, which I might change to aluminum?). I've spent the past week polishing, and polishing, and polishing, to bring the finish to a real shine. This guitar will be set up with four foot pedals, ...

I wanted to add a post here with a few more comments on this Guitar I built. I discovered that the foot pedals connected by cables is kind of clunky to move around. I really don't think this was such a great idea, and I will most likely not build another one. I put four short aluminum legs on it so ...

I have the Gluck CD, and older version, it was useful to give me some ideas, and as to how a Pedal Steel Guitar works. It is kind of hard to get through, I basically copied off all the information I considered useful and put it onto my hard disc for referencing, as I found the navigation method hard...

Here is a link to a short YouTube Video of my new Pedal Steel Guitar, which I might call 'LaPedal' ?? I'm not finished with it, I need to make the bottom cover, and a stand or legs for it. It can be played as a lap guitar if desired, or set on a table, or shoulder strap, or set on a stand as normal ...
