I did a little search and I was surprised to find out that there are seemingly very few recordings made with this tuning (C#m AKA E6 with a missing 5th in the top octave). Can someone enlighten me ...

With the recent interest in these tunings, here is a comparison of the two tunings used for Andy Iona’s ‘Naughty Hula Eyes’. The first is Danny Stewart’s intro using E7 on the first recording ...

I have a Fishman bridge installed in an MA8 a few years back by Paul. It's made with two 6 string bridges cut down. The problem is that the ceramic material chips and needs attention. It may have some ...

Thanks, Larry. Yes there is a long tradition here going back to TV shows and quite an industry in the past. It is still pretty strong with a national radio show and plenty of streaming shows and a siz ...

I am really happy with the sound of my new Williams on this recently released track from Jessie Che with whom I have worked for some years. It is a 12 string with a Lace Alumitone pickup and is played ...

Cheers, Mike.

One thing about the collection is that the liner notes are not good and so it is best to refer to Malcolm Rockwell's discography, Hawaiian and Hawaiian Guitar Records, for info on t ...

Oliver, you will probably get a ton of recommendations. Probably the most common would be C6 and E13, but there are different versions of each.

As a dobro player myself, I prefer A6 which has a si ...

Exactly what I need but I'm not finding it on the US Amazon site. Any chance of you providing a link, Peter? Email, possibly?

Well, I have gradually made the transition and no longer identify as a regular guitar player.

Bags packed and 8 string reso at the ready. I am really looking forward to this workshop and also catching up with some North West steel buddies!

Both. I never liked fingerpicks but if you put yourself in a position where they are essential, you will work it out. That situation for me was playing dobro (6 & 8 string) for long periods of tim ...

Thank you for this excellent work!

Sawyer, you have stumbled on a very interesting question though whether your quest to improve accessibility can succeed is moot.

Buddy is on 4 or 5 tracks of Lenny's '7 String Swing'.

This is a fascinating doco from 1968 that documents the production of Lenny's first album. His relationship with Nashville is of interest and adds some c ...

Definitely original. Covered with the same material. The inside one is attached to the separating batten rather than the bottom of the case.

The dimensions of the rests in my T8 case are 10" x 1" x 1 1/2" deep.

I don't see why you would hesitate to string it with 6, if that is what is required. I have the outside neck of my triple strung with C#m (E6) 6 string. Anything else, other than maybe a reentrant str ...

Here is my arrangement of Jerry Gleason's Steel Guitar Strut. Jerry plays it on two steel guitars, both tuned to C6 high G. I have adapted it for steel guitar in A6 and regular six string guitar.
