Welcome to my web site. I have been selling steel guitar products to players and enthusiasts of the instrument for 45 years. I don’t sell everything that’s available, just products I feel are worthy of ownership. Everything I do sell, I honestly describe. Any item purchased can be returned within 10 days for an exchange or a refund if you are not satisfied with it and it hasn’t been altered or damaged.

If you want to know more about me, a bit of my past history with the steel guitar was revealed at the International Steel Guitar Convention in 1966. Click on the “Hall of Fame Induction” navigation button in the left margin and you can read that background information revealed at that Convention.

Furthermore, I once was quite involved in the restoration of pedal steels. Fellow players have shown an interest in seeing some of the work I’ve done. If it interests you too, click on the “Restorations” navigation button on the left margin.

If you can wade through all of that, you have more patience than I have. The information about the items that I sell is far more interesting. So browse through the products listed there too. …Tom Bradshaw

If you want to move your guitar, why not take your volume pedal with you? I got tired of attachment brackets that didn’t hold a pedal rigidly in place and tightly on the pedal bar. So, I designed my own.

My music/tab racks are now available again, and affordable. The racks are cut from .080 gauge aluminum and come with an attractive brushed finish.

The Dunlop pot exceeds the quality of the older Type J pots. It provides a million revolutions of trouble-free performance.

I sell the most popular volume pedals for Steel Guitar, including Goodrich and the Telonics Multi-Taper Digital pedal.

My replacement fretboards are for 24" necks, made of .020 gauge vinyl and have an adhesive backing. They offer a non-glare finish and crisp definition in the symbols, fret lines, and fret markers.

I buy my strings from a manufacturer that I have stuck with for 40 years. My strings are not supplied in slick packaging. I mainly use them on guitars I restore, but will sell them separately.

I am proud to say that I was inducted into the Steel Guitar Hall of Fame in 2006. Each Hall of Famer receives a bronze plaque, with their likeness and a brief description of their accomplishments. Mine says:

During five decades, Tom produced numerous albums, seminars and concerts. As an entrepreneur, he promoted an untold number of players’ products, gave us the word “copedent”, and became a noted guitar craftsman. As publisher of Steel Guitarist Magazine and columnist and writer for Guitar Player, he was steel’s foremost journalist of his time, documenting player’s histories and the instrument’s evolution.
