Yes one of my favourites as well back in the day. I’ll change your flat tire Merle! Great stuff. Love love love the tshirt by the way, are they available?

I find myself sometimes not hitting the bottom when I depress my A pedal, ending in a flat note. the only thing that's changed is my age! I was thinking maybe I need to raise my pedals a smidge. What ...

Great stuff! I'm hearing Tom Brumley as well. This guy was obviously as good as any around at that time, this is the first I have heard of him.

There is another Australian pedal steel: Perina. I don’t know how many were made but the great Kenny Kitching played one until recently. Also someone in Perth was making an aluminium frying pan stee ...

Thankyou both.

They do a great job!

Thanks for the replys

We sometimes get a request for a Johny Cash song and I would love to have a go at Ring of fire and playing the trumpet part on steel guitar. Any suggestions on how to get a sound close to that part?

I use whatever chair is available, if there is none I will sit on my amp. Maybe that is why I’m suffering from sciatica now?

Likely the best thing that’s easy to install, sounds close to a dobro (but still slightly lap steelish because it’s a surface mounted humbucker) is the made in Oregon Krivo Resophonic pickup.

Thanks for the replies, I think I may have to try a couple of different options. I want it to still sound like a .Dobro.

That was great! Can you or anyone else explain what he was doing there? Dropping his low string down to what? He didn’t seem to have to adjust the pedal on that string.

I started on the pedal steel around age 30. I played in bands for about 5 years and put it away for the next 15 while we raised a family.At age 50 I got the urge to play again and man it was hard! I d ...

I’m with you Bob, love this band and I had the same question about the Fender. I think it may have been Dave who answered my question as well, or someone equally knowledgeable

I loved the YouTube show on Ralph’s tuning! Unfortunately I missed the radio show, is there anywhere else I can listen to it?

Thank Ethan I loved the YouTube show on Ralph’s tuning! Unfortunately I missed the radio show, is there anywhere else I can listen to it?

Are the 933 Gotohs mentioned the same as Sd90 3+3? They look like the old Klusons and the only ones I can find.
