Pedal Steel Guitar

The pedal steel guitar is an electric stringed instrument played horizontally on a stand, using a metal steel bar slid across the strings to change pitch while foot pedals and knee levers alter the tuning of individual strings in real time. It is a hallmark instrument of American country and Hawaiian music, prized for its smooth pitch bends and emotive slides. Playing it well requires coordinating hands, feet, and knees simultaneously, making it one of the more technically demanding stringed instruments.
