Thank you for this sir! I've always been fascinated with pedal steel!! I've played piano and guitar and bass for years, and would love to venture into the universe of pedal bc of the rich harmonies and textures it provides!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge it has been truly inspiring and I feel like you have taken me one more step towards admiring it to really wanting to learn

Beautiful steel bro! I like the exercise you get with all the levers! The C6 neck is what seemed to have taken the steel into much bigger territory

Why? They've got click tracks and snap tracks and lousy "musicians" rapping. What else do they need?

Hi there from the UK, great guitar and sound. Many thanks for the run through. Hope you don't mind a question please. You have mentioned the pickups, and to my ears it sounds as though you are saying 'Tencad' pickups, but can't find any reference on line, so guess I am hearing wrongly. I'd appreciate knowing the right name please. And if they are still available, or a clone maybe? I built my own pedal steel 48 years ago, and feel that a pickup improvement wouldn't go amiss. I like the tonal changes, and the Emmons sound. Many thanks, Melvyn

Melvyn, the pickups are "Pentad" pickups, in relation to them having a 5 way switch, and 5 different tones. Keep on picking my friend!

Why anyone would torture him or herself by trying to learn to play pedal steel I will never know, but thank baby Jebus they do. Awesome sounds emanating from this beast. Would have loved to hear you play it overdriven though.

Well Chuckschilling, you've really answered your own question! """Awesome""" sound. (Ah, someone actually using the word so appropriately - Americans normally saying it for the most mundane😊) But actually, for me it came so easy compared with a conventional guitar - press two pedals and you have the four chord, one pedal and one knee lever and you have the 5 chord dom7th. one pedal and you have the relative minor, and so on... Use the other pedals and levers and slide the bar and you have a whole soundscape opening up like a panoramic picture. Within a few months of building my steel, i was in a recording studio, and playing in a band, after having struggled with a guitar for 20 years! I only ever got to finish the E9 neck, with more levers to go. Then stopped playing for 45 years, having moved house (long story), totally frustrated. Now back playingat 78 years old. Heck so much to catch up on, and so little time! Try it again friend, and maybe you'll find the magic moment. So much fun.😊😊😊Rocking on two pedals and one knee lever to start with, so keeping it simple.

There's enough overdrive and distortion on guitars to last me a lifetime. I play pedal steel to hear the clean tone and combined moving voices. Fat tone is plentiful with steel guitar. Great guitar here and fine tones with excellent playing.

Would you say a double neck makes each neck sound better do to the size of the instrument?

Some folks believe that the extra body mass can contribute to overall tone and sustain. But it really is the Indian not the arrow..
