Hey Mike,

I'm really jealous of your 800, if it lets you have more than one pull per string--my 400 doesn't at the moment Crying or Very sad

I only play steel when I'm supporting an acoustic player. At best we have a drummer, otherwise nothing else. And never managed the pretty girl kissing bit.

Thanks Jim!

011 sounds about right, and I can work my way back from there:)

Thanks for the words, guys. I'm currently straining my eyes to read the chart, and it seems like my high G# would be an 011, which, Jim, you'd say an 013?

That seems mighty thick, so I'm double ch ...

Ah, sorry Basil.

I don't have a handy copedent to post here at work, but the highest notes for each string would be, low to high:

E-C#-F-F#-A-C#-F-A

Hey all,

Getting ready to change strings and realized that I may need new string gauges, given a new tuning. I've got a shortscale Fender 400, planning on tuning it low to high, E-B-E-F#-G#-B-E-G ...

It seems that many of us are in agreement that chorus (or too much chorus) is not a good effect for steel. For those who like it, would there be a convincing argument for what it does to enhance your ...

I have to admit that I too am an effects junkie..I love the swirlies, the loops, the ambient textures, and with the pedal steel, even moreso than with 6 string, you can do so much more of that. That ...

You could actually install that entire pedal board ON TO a Leslie cabinet. Drape it over the side, and have your other effects on TOP, thus complicating both setup and back pain. But OH what a beaut ...
