Product Review: Golden Gate Extension Nut

Some members of our pedal steel community maintain that learning a pedal-less style greatly increases their left hand dexterity. Because of this, learning on a dobro or lap steel translates into better steel guitar playing. I was considering buying a pedal-less instrument, but then I discovered the Golden Gate extension nut that raises the action on a standard guitar to allow for the use of a steel. This is a much cheaper solution than a new guitar, and it has performed very well over the past few months. Consider using this product if you want to convert guitars back and forth from regular playing to a dobro or lap steel style. Highly recommended!
