There is a "Trawlerman" pedal steel on Ebay UK.
Does anyone know anything about them?

I'm more worried about this one. Those pictures look familiar. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pedal-steel-guitar...

Dave, I've "googled" trawlerman pedal steel I've never heard of them either. No returns at all on google, so I still have no idea.

When I click on the link a beautiful ZB pops up,What scares me is the person selling it has 0 feedback,and the story about who it belonged to sounds a little strange?

Apparently the seller couldn't count too well either as I see at least eight pedals .Or do I ? Will the winning bidder give us a report on this unusal inst. ?

Here's the link to the Trawlerman

The other link is to a ZB that says "The guitar is a ZB D10, 3 knees, 3+5 floor pedals...". I assume that the 3+5 means 3 on one neck, 5 on the other for a total of 8 pedals. The ZB sold for £700.

There is slight a gap between ABC(or CBA) and 4,5,6,7,8. Maybe that's why it was advertised that way.

Dodgy. Winner has a private ID, seller no longer registered with E-bay.

Trawlerman might be a composite of bits and pieces from other makers. the keyhead looks familiar (?) and the changer looks to be a Sho-Bud --hard to see from the angle. I knew a man who could make/repair just about anything in his 2 car garage locally, named John Frye, but he has health problems now. Had lots of leftover Bits and Pcs around. JZ

It's from England, but has a Confederate flag on the pedal board? Hmmm, wonder if he'd take a fin for it .....

That looks like Sponge Bob Square Pant's old steel.
