What is the Pedal Steel Guitar?

The pedal steel guitar is played with a stainless steel bar that slides easily up and down the strings to modify the pitch, just like its ancestor, the Hawaiian steel guitar. The instrument's velvety, legato tone is provided by the bar, which also makes it challenging to play in tune. Rarely, if ever, is the pedal steel strummed. There are pedals and levers that are used to raise and lower the pitch simultaneously. There is also an expression pedal that is used for sustain.
