Re: The All New Gear Liquidation Thread

I am selling a double necked pedal steel - it's a 10 lever C6/E9 steel made by a Scottish company called Springfield in the 70s. Comes with a very heavy touring flightcase.

If you're into pedal steel you'll know stuff like this is hard to come by. I tried learning it but I've started to get arthritis in my hands and muting behind the steel bar is making my fingers lock up.

Everything works as it should with the exception of the selector switch to go between necks which is occasionally intermittent. I kept meaning to take it to a tech and get it switched out but it's not exactly something I can take on the bus.

Anyway - it's in Shropshire UK and I'm after as close to £800 as I can get for it. I'd consider trades for a nice small amp like a Princeton or a 5E3 Deluxe, or guitars even. I'd just like it to go to a good home and I could use the space.

Photos if you need them...

If anyone was considering a window into that whole world, you should totally get this. It’s not easy to find pedal steels for that price in the N. American South, so I can’t imagine someone getting a better deal in the UK. For reference, I paid about £550 more for a used entry level GFI 10-string with one neck in Texas.

Clean amps are best, but it will work with whatever rig you’ve got now, just be sure to make a volume pedal a priority. The internet is lousy with books and lessons and videos to get started, but once you figure out the A+B pedal mash you can kind of play along to basic stuff. I learned by playing Greensleeves or whatever from books and playing along to Dirty Three records and am still very much a beginner, but it’s such a beautiful sound.

Altec 425-8A 10” 8-ohm. Original cone but dust cap was changed from aluminum to paper by Scumback guy. 75 watts. $100.

Weber 12” high power ceramic Chicago (or California?) that works but needs a recone. $40. They recone any of their speakers for $35 plus shipping.

Would also trade any of these for other 8-ohm speakers plus or minus cash depending. Mostly interested in a Lead 80, G12-65, ET65, Tonespotter, Mesa 90, or Celestion V Type.

I’d rather not ship, but if you really want something we can talk.

Free if you are reading this, still not shipping. Hit me up on reverb if you want it.
Your reverb ad is ripe for Hall of Fame material. I will post it here for all to see.

-----

NO SHIPPING. EVER. NOT HAPPENING. YOU COULD OFFER $1200 AND I WOULD NOT SHIP IT. YOU’RE PICKING IT UP NEAR DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN OR GETTING SOMETHING ELSE ENTIRELY. SORRY.

NO RETURNS, FORGET IT

Absolutely wasted strat body of unknown origin. Some nerd can probably determine that from the original routing but I have no idea. Paint is terrible and I went HAM on it with a spade bit. Don’t like that? Go jump in the river. I don’t know the wood it‘s made out of. Weighs more than two pounds and less than ten.

Want to experiment with paint? I got you. Want to build a guitar in the garage you can drop and not have an aneurysm? Here you go. Want to smash a guitar for stage antics? Start here. Thinking about mounting all your dumb effects pedals to the body but don’t want to ruin your 1962 jazzmaster? Have I got a deal for you.

No returns - you gotta be kidding me. It’s a $5 body, jackass. Sell it for $10 on here, I dunno. You won’t be talking to me about it, that’s for certain.
