Re: Steel Seat

Looks like a much better seat, but I preferred the red colour of your original, matched the guitar nicely ;) But a very nicely made seat, I use a piano style seat as the real McCoy is almost the same cost as my guitar :lol: My guitar is also red but a bit older than yours.

Re: My pedal steel No 2

I built a router table with a cheapo router a friend gave me, I eventually bought the Erbaur router when it was reduced to £100, unfortunately I had to re-jig the table to suit, which was...
