Chris-- I was at a gig to see Rick Schmidt play and he said he was hoping to make it. Boy, he gets a great tone from his'Bud. I guess I'm past due in having you do the yearly maintenance on my Carter. ...

The area code in Blackie's part of Riverside county is now 951. 909 is the old one and has been split in half (some are still 909 while others are 951).

Roger-- the Loretta Lynn concert was on my local PBS too. What I show! I was blown away by Bob's steel playing. I did not know who he was but figured I'd find out here. That was great playing and grea ...

Jack-- socks for me too! I've got a wide flat foot and it is just easier to mash the pedels I plan on if I'm only wearing socks. Of course, I keep the shoe close by when it is time to walk on the floo ...

Hi-- is it my browseres (IE and Netscape) or did Bobbe stop selling Emmons guitars? For the last week, whenever I go to the Steel Guitar Nashville web page, there is no button for Emmons.

I'm with Gene Jones on this one. Besides playing a Carter, I have LKV set to lower G# to G. That is a change I learned to use real fast!

Hi-- I haven't heard any more comments recently about whether or not Pedal Steel.US magazine was going to publish anymore. Has it officially gone belly up? Hasn't it been over a year or a year and hal ...

Your day jobs must be as comedy writers. I am still laughing out loud after reading these posts. Lets see more like these when things seem to be getting tense.

Everybody in RR's Band is an excellent musician. This Austin City Limits show was even better than RR's first appearance. I was really impressed with Calvin Cook's playing. I assume that was a Fender. ...

Ben-- did this guitar start as a JT-30 or a JT-300?

Just a question as I'd like to come hear you guys. At the American Legion Hall in Anaheim, you have to be a member or a member's guest to gain admittance. Are these gigs always open to anyone at the C ...

No doubt Rusty Young deserves to be in the HOF. I saw him with POCO in 1969 (maybe early 1970) and have always liked the psg since. Beisdes his country and country-rock playing, check out his version ...

I went out to Blackie Taylor's shop in Riverside CA in 1999, and he still had a copy of the book (with the vinyl record in it too!). Blackie recommended it as a starter, self-instructional book. It wo ...

I've always had G#-G on LKV. Couldn't live without it. Nice to see that one of my heros, Tom Brumley, uses it too.

This has come up before but it is always interesting! I'm W6QZ. I've been licensed since I was a sophomore in high school (1966) and started out as WN6TIF, then WB6TIF when I got my general. I became ...

I started out on six string in 1959. Started playing bass in 1973 (guitar players were a dime a dozen in the 70s; guitar players like me were a nickel a dozen). Finally started playing pedal steel in ...

John-- I bought my standard Dobro strap from Folk of the Wood and am very satisfied. It is very comfortable and does not interfere with playing.

Rusty-- I have my LKV set to lower the G#'s to G. That gives you another way to get the minor chord from the major without moving the bar.
