Hey Pete... great idea to hear from some of Buddy's students over the years. I took lessons from him at the Oxon Hill music store for one summer in the mid-1970's. Some of the other guys going there a ...

Jinx "Tex" Carmen was the first guy that really attracted me to the steel guitar. When I was about 10 years old, his "Hillbilly Hula" just killed me. Some people might make fun of ...

Dan,

I've very interested in what you're working on as well.... in fact, I can hardly wait to get my hands on one! Best of luck to you, I think there's a market for such an instrument, with people ...

Mark,

The problem with the old Ric lap steels is that they all have that staying in tune issue. They sound wonderful, but the bakelite is unstable I guess. They go out of tune as soon as you lay it ...

Mark and Howard... I used my Rickenbacher 6 string (from the 1930's) and Lowell George's Fender Twin Reverb on the cut of Willin' in the studio. The engineer, George Massenburg, owns Lowell's old amp, ...

Wow... thanks guys. It's always surprising to me to hear how many people were learning something from me, while I was just trying to have fun. I feel like I'm still in the learning process and pray th ...

Yeah Tony, I do... and one of my early attempts to make my own resonator guitar was to cut a big hole in the top of a $15 Roy Rodgers guitar and try to use a paper radio speaker! And, you're right How ...

Bobby,

My emails to you keep coming back, at both the comcast and bell south addresses. Do you still have the guitar?

Thanks, Mike

"Is the first string D higher ...."

Sorry, I should have said NO, the first string is lower.

------------------
[url=http://www.mikeauldridge.com]www.mikeauldridge.com

Yes, the first string D is lower than the second string E, in the C6 tuning. This sets up scale patterns that are easier on the right hand. In the C9 tuning, strings one and two are lower than string ...

Howard has it... Although I usually list it from low to high. G6... EGBDEGBD.
I also use C6: ACEGACED, and C9: CDEGCEBD on some other eight string recordings. I appreciate the interest... Thanks!

David, Here's one that I use for country style songs... it's C9, which has the same intervals as the pedal steel E9:
