Hey Paddy...can you share your setting for the preamp?

Thanks Len. I generally run direct and don't use an amp whenever that's possible. If I do use an amp, it'll be a Nashville 400 or a Webb 6-14E. Thanks for the validation on the Sesh 400 choice!

Thanks, Dennis! I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the TC Furlong Sesh 400.

Looking forward to toying around.

Got it, thanks!

Paddy, Steel Dream before preamp? Why is that?

I run direct and have been using either a PodXT or a Helix. Just got a Benado Steel Dream and wondering what would be a good preamp to use?

Hey Jim! Sure...wrap it up and send it down. I need it on Dec 4th (next Monday) and would like to try it out before hand to get used to it. Venmo?

Has anyone found a pedal that creates a deeper tone to emulate a cello?

Thanks Tony, I'll look to hear from you/

Tucker, no it's a plain/

Thanks John!

Hey Donny,

Thanks for this. I read and pretty much understand the issue and the solution, however, I don't think it's a great first time under the hood project for me. So my next question is do yo ...

Have a Rittenberry Prestige that I picked up from Johnie King a while back. Absolutely beautiful guitar, sounds and plays great and came set up just right. Been my secondary guitar and hasn't seen a ...

Not a skill set of mine. Plus I want to retain an original set in case I sell the guitar.

Thanks Jim. I wonder why no reply or answer? I need to order some pedal rod an inch shorter than standard.

Been trying to reach Gary by phone and email with no luck. Does anyone know If he is ok?

I just heard that Tim passed away from Complications of an illness. Rest In Peace.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

Can anyone help me identify this issue?

It started about a couple of weeks ago. I just changed strings and it seems to have gotten worse.

It eventually gets to Eb, but it take a couple of sec ...

This is incredibly sad news. Herby was one of my favorite players. Never knew anyone who could tear up a C6 tune like him. My prayers are with his family. John

Credits show Greg Leisz as the steel player. Haven't seen this yet, but talked to a few folks who really loved it.

My Zumsteel has developed a hum that seems to climb in volume the higher i play on the neck (closer I play to the pickups). I've changed every cord, amps, the whole 9 yards, and can't seem to get rid ...

Just returned from a week there! Been there quite a bit over the past few years. Haven't had the opportunity to play there as yet, but really like taking the longboats on the Chao Praya river!

Hey there,

I just took my ZUM to Prague and back in the original felt case. I put bubble wrap around the inside and it did pretty well. I had two small clips that broke, but I really believe that w ...

Tim's right, you'll need to get them from Tommy directly. I paid $40. Email Tommy at tommyd@mindspring.com.
