That's so cool, Dom! You're a good man. Plus you're very talented!

Excellent! Great singing and playing, Dom!

Love seeing these old lap steels. Thanks for posting these pieces of history, Noah!

Lap steel is a versatile instrument...in the right hands! I really dig what you do with it, Mike. Cool

Michael makes the best bars available! Only ones I use.

Very nice, James!

I've always loved your playing, your steels and videos, James. Nice to see you posting again!

That's how it's done! Great band there Sebastian.

Dang! Just missed your show, Jordan! I sure do appreciate the great music on Steel Radio. I've become enamored by Hawaiian steel guitar. Sold my pedal steel! Kinda wish I had it back Confused

Wow, Bill! Very nice stand.

I love that whole album. Really nice rendition, Alex!

Always enjoy your music, Ethan!

I like the position of the palm lever. It looks like you have more pick control when engaging it. More finger independence than the usual palm levers. Cool idea!

Such great tone from those metal body Rickenbachers. I have a NS that has invisible fret markers as well. Great suggestion on the pinstripe tape. Congrats on your Model 59, James!

What a beautiful instrument. Very nice playing, Roger!

What a great band! Wish I could find people around here to play that kind of music. Best of luck, Christo! You sound fantastic.

Really great Steve! As usual!

Excellent, Peewee! Your band is awesome.

I only use it when I'm playing with others. I change guitars when I'm playing with a band. It just makes it easier.

That is one sweet ride! Congratulations, Nathan. Just the one I would have chosen. Cool

That's fantastic, Mike!

Tim, the stand is from Deluxe 34. No longer made by that company but I believe they are made now by Asher Guitars. I made the double neck brackets to replace the single neck brackets.

My Rickenbacher DC16 is comfortable on my lap, but it is heavy. When in a low chair, it sits out far enough for the nearest neck to be accessible. That said, I much prefer it on a stand.

Those are all great, Lloyd! I love this music and would also like to hear more. There are some very talented players out there in the world! I'm particularly interested in high bass A as well.

Thanks Rick! I'll give the nail polish a try.
