pedal steel identification (Squier ?)

Post by Maxime Ledon »

Hi,

Does someone by any chance know of this pedal steel model/brand ?
I can't find any "squier" pedal steel on the net. Could it be a "frankensteel" made of different parts, from far looks like a George L. pickup ?
Thanks a lot and joyeux noel !

No idea but I love the fret markers.
Did they play pedal steel in ancient Rome?
Could be older than you think...

That "Squier" logo is from another Fender guitar or amp. Fender never made a Squier pedal steel.

Yeah No, that has been cobbled together from odd parts. Still could be a good player but one of a kind frankensteel like you suspect.

I believe that's a badge from a Squier amp. Maybe was just something they had lying around.
