Who makes Magnum Steel Guitars?
The Magnum is designed by Bud Carter, who designed the MSA, MCI, and Carter Steel Guitars and John Fabian (Carter-Starter). Magnums are built at the Carter Steel Guitar facility in Mesquite, Texas, USA. By now, many of our previous design innovations have been incorporated into most every brand of steel. In our most recent development, the Magnum, we have intentionally designed in great, consistent and clear sound, while keeping only what parts are necessary and useful. One of the features We feel is important to most steel players is keeping a steel lightweight while being easy and fun to play and maintain. The sustain and tone of Magnum Steel Guitars are among the best available and the result of many years of computer and field studies. The compact, low-profile design provides a Pedal Steel Guitar with maximum intonation and sustain throughout the scale. This results in extremely fast and easy playing action and no “dead spots” anywhere on the neck.
