Well Doug, living here in Ontario that black fly information was by far the most useful of the whole thread. lol! Just kidding of course.

It's my understanding that the Danelctro Fish & Chips EQ does a pretty good job of getting a resonator sound out of your steel. The Resonator pedals are pricey so I may go this route. I was wonder ...

Since discovering the steel guitar about 3 years ago I can say that Kayton is by far my fave! He just seems like he's a blast to play with and a true gentleman. Happy Birthday Kayton.

I have an Ibanez AF 75 that I would like to trade for a 6 string lap steel. It is in great condition and comes with a nice hard shell. I did have the plastic nut replaced with a synthetic bone one and ...

That's what I thought. He is asking for guitar trades as well so I am going to offer him my Ibanez AF 75 hollowbody. I am in Toronto so not too close to London.

I just realized I didn't put the price in. It's going for $650 CAN which is $500 US. It looks to be in pretty good shape as well as the original case.

I was just wondering if this was worth the price point? This steel is for sale near me...

I'm still relatively new to the instrument as I've only been playing for a couple of years and have been a bit off and on as I play guitar as well. I've noticed that I find it way easier to pick block ...

Do you have anything on Youtube? I'd love to see it.

I am a huge Steve Howe fan as he inspired me to first start playing guitar. I thought I'd post this video although not the best quality it does show his incredible musicianship.

I just wanted to post a pic of my sx lap steel that I just upgraded with a new bridge from trembley guitars. I am going to fly mod it so more pics to come.

Great stuff! Absolutely love Hickory Wind!

It would be great if someone on here could tab out Valley of the Roses. Amazing album by the way. I bought as soon as I watched the Marty Stuart vids.

I don't need an intonated bridge just like the look of the wilkinson. I also heard that the bushings on the original bridge are too short and that the bridge begins to lift away from the guitar in tim ...

I have an sx lap steel aswell and am thinking of putting a Wilkinson Tele style bridge form guitar fetish on it. It's the one with out the cutout for the angular single coil. Can I just fill the holes ...

I have an sx lap steel like the one in the thread. I was wondering if the palm pedals would work well with a c6 tuning and what strings you would put them on.

I am looking at a fender 400 that is for sale near me. Just wondering how much work it would be to set it up with new cables? My buddy is a welder and has his own business and he can pretty much make ...

The scale length is 22 3/4.
