The case is rough, but otherwise she's 100%.

I need to get $1850 plus shipping for her. No trades, please.

Section 1 is for all strings that either raise or lower
Section 2 is for strings that Raise and Lower

Section 1
1) Tune all open notes to pitch
2) Tune all Raises on pedals and knee levers first, to desired pitch; than retune open string with the metal hex screw on the end plate(5th string raise on “C” pedal is tuned with Nylon tuner on finger)
3) For lowers; engage pedal or knee lever; and tune with hex screw on the end plate, to desired pitch.

Section 2
E9 neck
1) Strings 4 & 8 both raise and lower; so tune the 4th string raise to F# on pedal first. Than retune open E note with the nylon tuner that lowers the string. Than engage the lower and tune to desired pitch with the hex screw on the end plate. Than tune the raise to F knee lever with the nylon tuner that raises the string.
2) For the 8th string; tune the raise with the nylon tuner that raises the string…than tune the lower on hex screw on the end plate.
Section 3
C6 neck
1) Strings 3; 9 and 10 both raise and lower; so tune the pedal raise to D to pitch; than retune open note with nylon tuner that lowers. Than engage lower and tune desired pitch on hex screw at the end plate.
2) Strings 9 & 10 are tuned the same as string 3.
Note: It’s really easy once you do it a few times. The guitar is already set up to go and come back on all strings pulled or released…..so there should only be minor adjustments if any, as time goes on the strings and/or changing strings.
Have fun…

Steve, I'm glad you're loving the SD-10. That guitar is the reason that I bought the Speedy... it's an incredible-sounding guitar. Those two instruments share the same pull-release changer design, and there's nothing out there that sounds like it. Tone to the bone.

Duncan, I like the way you're talking!

If you guys have any questions about this guitar, you might direct them to Ricky Davis. Actually, he has more experience on it than I do, as I haven't played much steel since the Speedy came back to me... I've been so busy with my day gig that I haven't been able to make much music. Ricky lived with it for a few weeks, and he can speak to just about any question... and I think he'd be willing to help in his usual positive, good-natured way.

I didn't mention it earlier, but this guitar was built by Leonard Stadler in 1971.

Beauties like this don't come along every day. I'm torn about moving it, but I need the money more than the guitar at the moment.
