If you know of a deserving young person who wants to learn the pedal steel but can't due to the costs associated, we would like to help. We are looking for dedicated, serious musicians who want to pla ...

I would like to thank the SWSGA and everyone at the show for the support shown to Steel Resolve! I had a wonderful time listening to some outstanding playing and getting to know so many folks that sha ...

Hey Jonah, I'm happy Steel Resolve was able to help and we are very glad to have you as a student. John has been really impressed with your development. We hope to be hearing you out playing soon!

It's a great idea and I'd like to congratulate you!

But the main, heaving, monstrous caveat here, the GIANT one, is: there have been a number of scamsters plowing up this field for quite some time, a couple of them right here, and you'll need to BA ...

One of the things that come to my mind is how to accomidate this program to fit your area. You must have a program design to #1 Have enough instructors and have a agreement with the instructors on how ...

I know there are many young players around. Many think that it is dying.

I just sold a seat to a 15 year old and yesterday to a 16 year old. Last week I shipped a seat to Europe to a young man th ...

I want to publicly acknowledge my involvement with this project. Josh has a been student of mine for over a year now and has made remarkable progress. I've even had him set up beside me at some local ...

In my conversations with Josh I am blown away by his compassion and excitement for the pedal steel, reminding how fortunate I was to have mentors from the Jump Start Academy and why we started That Th ...

Thanks, Bud! It was good talking to you and I appreciate your support.

I will check both of them out. Thanks guys!

Thanks Erv! I really like that price.

I'm starting up a nonprofit, Steel Resolve, that is going to provide steel guitars and lessons to kids across the country. I'm not a lap steel player (yet), so I'm not very familiar with the builders. ...

If Mr. Carter only made a couple hundred Carters, instead of thousands, priced them $500-$1000 higher, all while keeping the exact same standards, I wonder what the demand would be?

Great player and a really good guy. If you want to see a band that puts the steel front and center, go see a Whitey Morgan and the 78s show.

Josh, is your program regional (Georgia) or national?
Hi Jim, we will be national.

I'm hoping to match kids with instructors around the country, with the instructors being compensated for their ti ...
