Thanks Mitch for the information. That old pedal steel sound just does it for me. I like that era of songs and style on the pedal steel.

Jerry, I have only heard a live version before on you tube ...

Do any of you fine folks know the make of the pedal steel on Marty Robbins original recording of "I'll Step Aside"? And who was playing PSG on this song if you know? I heard it on you tube b ...

That's tough and I feel for you. My two dogs are as loyal as any buddy could be. They just want to love and be loved while they are here on earth. Just like us. I'm thinking of you during this time of ...

I sent Hank Locklin an e-mail message about 5 years ago

Is this the same fine singer that was on "Pollyanna"? If so he was one of the greats. I think I remembered but I was pretty young when their version was on the radio.

ajm, no offense at all. Just the opposite. Thank you.
I don't know much about the vintage guitar market but it is very interesting to learn.

What makes most of the older instruments like this worth more than one new? My Aunt has a 1962 Stratocaster and it seems to go up in value every year. A much newer natural ash Strat like hers is much, ...

I think Don is the first player that really got my attention. I love his style and really miss that sound today.

Yep. If an item goes higher than what I would pay I back out. I can't do that with gasoline but I can with ebay. Thanks...

I'll do that Bill. That makes sense. It just seemed some funny business was going on but maybe there are alot more newbies bidding than I used to see. I still like buying the "regular way" b ...

Five or six years ago I was bidding on quite a bit of music related items on e-bay and it always went smooth.

Thanks David.

How did Speedy West get such an awesome sound from the pedal steel on Loretta Lynn's original version of "Honky Tonk Girl"? I just listened to it again and you don't hear that sound today on ...

I made Saturday evening to mainly see Gene Fields and his GFI's. I am in the market for a new pedal steel which will be my first. If I have met a nicer guy than Gene Fields I can't remember when. He m ...

You can get to Cavenders and Boot Town which is right next door in about 20 minutes I would think. Both are off 635 on the north side a mile or so east of I-35.

I have yet to buy my first pedal steel but I have owned a few banjos over the years and this is a great professional level banjo. The new Goldstar 5-string banjo is as good as some other makes costing ...

It's troubling when a person has such a passion for something like a steel guitar or any instrument for that matter and the builder, whoever it may be, gets nasty acting in any way over a question, pr ...

Good call Dick. I forgot about the Trail Dust. They have been around a long time and are probably a little more inexpensive than the others I listed. The Grapevine Trail Dust is out of business now I ...

Doug,
Do a search for... A Jackson Blackjack Rave. You can get some comments there at least on the Blackjack.

Why has the pedal steel been such a force in country music and what made so many on this forum gravitate toward the pedal steel? I suspect it was because of music just like this version of "Cold, ...

Dan and Don,

Happy New Year '08 to you both. Wishing you a very healthy and prosperous one too. This is going to be a
year of great and wonderful things that really matter and will endure.

I loved Don Wardens style especially on the show. All you had to do was listen for that first lick and you knew it was Don Warden. An incredible and unique style.
It seemed Don could milk that steel ...

This band was very tight and that Fender steel sounds awesome.
