An old Supro "Comet" lap steel, a Ricky BD6, 1938 and a '68 Fender Telecaster Bass.

Al Bragg & Don Patterson (who plays just about enough to get to hang out with real steelers)from Ottawa Canada.

I have a '74 Classic S-10 in nearly new condition.

Glad to hear Bob Wingrove is still playing. Back in the 70's I was a young TV cameraman on a show called "Country Way" produced in Ottawa Canada. Bob was the steel player on that show , a great C6th m ...

Mine's a 1974 White Tidewood S-10, plays like new and looks pretty good too. A paper tag stuck inside says "final inspection & assembly by Bud Carter".

That beginning lick on "Young Love" sure inspired a lot of us young kids back in '57 or so.

I've been a ham since 1972, VE3AAW in Ottawa Canada.

Back in the 60's I had to play bass guitar with a band on a pontoon boat while crossing the Ottawa River. A wave came over the bow and my amp, an old Supro ended up in about 3 inches of water. That am ...

Me too and lets not forget Al Bragg and Bob Wingrove too.

I'e been "lurking" here for quite a while now and I finally got around to joining. I play lap steel, dobro, and a bit of pedal steel too. I am always amazed at the comaraderie amongst all the members ...
