Don't buy a brand new pedal steel.Buy an optical volume pedal. Buy a compressor.Buy a height-adjustable bench.Do not buy any pedal steel without access to all three of these things.

Some of these seats are around $200.

Could not believe that I had ever tried to tune the thing without it.https://www.petersontuners.com/products/stompclassic/

I have one of those for regular guitar! I found a pedal steel that some people said was a good deal. I guess that s assuming it works but I also found a guy 20 minutes down the road in Louisiana who can work on them. This past week I was just FB messaging these old local pedal steel guys out of the blue asking them certain questions, and they ve all been really helpful with information or offering to show me the way around on them a little.
