So after I begun playing bottle neck I really want to take it further and get a pedal steel and looking if anybody has experience here to share. Like I love country too but I want to get input from somebody who knows about drony heavy stuff too; steel forums seem a little one-track.
I thought first about going with a steel but it seems that route is either a lap steel or some double neck that costs as much as a pedal steel. Getting some tiny lap steel would be fun but the range of the big 'uns excites me (I think some guys have like a low 5-string bass B, thinking that like running that thru an SVT with fuzz=the dewmz) plus it honestly seems easier to me with all the levers rather than doing selective picking.
Biggest issue seems getting one but they do exist in sweden it seems, once I almost did the 5 hour drive cause it came with a free princeton but I didn't really have that cash.
But yeah got any general tips on what to look out for?
