What a fine piece of work!

If only there was a C-6 neck on this Encore of mine! My son is into Jazz, and his comment was, "I never knew they could do stuff like this on a steel guitar."

William,

A real tear-jerker that I would looove to learn to play! Had never heard this before, but that's not surprising for the many years I spent playing Rock & Roll.

If I had seen this color combo, I have have gotten Doug to make mine a wood on blue instead of a black on blue. Really sharp!

Guys,

Guys,

Another attempt at a creating a tabâ€¦ one of my favorite intros. Every time I look at this thing, I find another error or something else to tweak, but it ought to be pretty close to the ...

Thanks, Gary! Greatly appreciated!

Inserted a link and tweaked the text a bit.

I have one of Bruce Earnest's Encores, and couldn't be happier. Although I am a VERY new player, the one advantage that the Encore might have is the 5th left knee (up) lever which, off of an open posi ...

Not really MY tab, but pulled from Johnny Up's description in his YouTube video. Does this seem close to the mark? Hope the bar lines and note values aren't a distraction, but it's hard for me to atte ...

The MOST frustrating thing about starting out has been that the metal picks I am using for the index/middle fingers keep flipping off (sorry for the pun). In some desperation, I tried one-inch blue pa ...

I'll get 'em for you when the guitar arrives, and you can count on that. There is one from somewhere else on the forum that is just like mine except that it has a Franklin pedal, but I wouldn't want t ...

Just went to the Post Office and dropped off a check to Doug Earnest. Woohoo! Can't wait!

Just pulled the trigger on this guitar today. Saw a picture of one of these on the Forum here. Will be difficult to wait until next June, but that's what I get for not ordering it earlier, right?!? In ...

This is my first post on the forum. Will be ordering a steel soon, and would really like to use this song by Johnny Paycheck as a learning tool. I want most of what can be gotten off of the record, I ...
