I'm not sure this was the intended use in that tuning, but they do allow you to move into and out of cluster voicings and suspensions. My understanding is that a fair amount of the "modern steel ...

Wow what a beauty!

I'm also in Ontario, Canada, and second this haha. I love the blue too.

Bobby I agree it's a good price people were just having a little fun at the typo is all. All the best on the sale!

I love mileage on a great guitar!

Having owned dozens of instruments over the years, one thing I've learned is that a guitar having a list of features you think you want doesn't automatically make the guitar perfect for you. On the o ...

Yeah I saw that too Bill. I'm not sure what to think. There's no undercarriage photos. I assume you could move those pedals over to their normal position.

Looks very clean!

Is that a rack and barrel or a two hole bell crank? I'm still learning about these.

And that's 8 and 5, right?

What a guitar that Sho-Bud is! I understand not wanting to ship, but I can't get to Nashville from where I live in Canada either haha. Maybe someday.

With all the virtual amps now available in pedal format (Dream '65 etc), it would not be hard to put together a wet dry wet rig on a pedalboard. Then you just need to be friends with the sound guy to ...

I use S gear for recording in Reaper, which is the cheapest non-free DAW. I use a scarlett 2i2 which is near the bottom for usb audio interfaces. My computer was pretty good 7 years ago when I bough ...

Hi Tim!

Every latency problem I've had on my Windows PC has been immediately fixed by using different driver options. Usually everything loads with Windows Audio, which is basically unusable becau ...

Carl I think your updated copedent looks really good. The half stop solves a lot of problems and now you basically have a C pedal and your F lever on the same lever. Combined with using the D# strin ...

For string tension on E9, this article is probably all you need:

OH OK sounds good thank you

This is all good to hear I might have to check it out sometime too.

I got a set of new .240 diameter cables, I had the tone I wanted. Cost me $30.00.

Hey Bobby good to hear! Could you share the brand?

I agree with Bob and Donny.

I will add that 3 factors that effect my amp choices are: the high output of PSG pickups, the increased need for string separation, and the ability to handle the lower e ...

Thanks for the post, Chris, I appreciate it!

I've yet to try the capture world, but I would like to. Mark Knopfler was a big influence on me and he switched to using a Kemper for live playing. I' ...

Thanks, Justin.
I played my Tele through a Mesa MkIIc+ for years. It can do clean very well, so I’m interested in trying it. But I’ll give the Cory a spin too.

NP sounds good. I've not played ...

I've always been a tube amp guy, but my cousin convinced me I should try Neural DSP plugins.
Just curious which ones you tried. I might have to give the Mesa MK IIc a shot.

The amps in the TH3 plugin are definitely not voiced for pedal steel.

I think that that might be the biggest hurdle to using modelers generally. They are definitely made for 6 string regular gui ...

I have not tried it but in my experience it is usually impossible to get a very clean sound out of a pedal that has a gain knob when using a pedal steel. The high output of the PSG's pickups is usual ...

Certainly I wouldn't expect any of the current modelers or software to be around in 50 years. For the software some of it is pretty cheap at about $70 per plugin. You have it "forever" but ...
