Nothing says "Country" like the crying bending strings of a pedal steel guitar. But what if you don't have a pedal steel, can't afford one, and don't have time to learn one of the most complex instruments on the planet? Try a Telecaster B-Bender!
What exactly is a B-Bender and how can it add the perfect touch of Country twang to your music? Find out in today's video, as Robert celebrates his birthday with a guitar overdubbing party!
Go behind-the-scenes as Robert uses his Hipshot B-Bender with a G Palm Lever and Drop D — adding an atmospheric guitar part to Cosmic Spin's upcoming original song "Messenger," written by Robert himself.
See and hear for yourself why this all-in-one "Country contraption" is the ultimate Pedal Steel Substitute.

Featured Music:
Messenger by Cosmic Spin
Written by Robert Cassard
Performed by Bara Waters & Robert Cassard

2011 Squier Tele with Hipshot B-Bender/G Palm Lever/Drop D
