That was excellent, Doug. Your impeccable technique is always inspiring. Great shirt, too, by the way.

Check your email. I'll send you some closeups of my own Pomona 6.

Hello, Deluxe 34. Got my new U4 stand today and the reso kit works very well with my Weissenborn. Lot to be said for sitting up straight,having your arms level, and neck not bent. Better tone from the ...

Duesenberg Pomona 6. I've got three other lap steels -- two of 'em 'vintage' -- but if I had to flee a forest fire with one, this is it. Superb finish, great pickups, 25 1/2" scale, built in capo ...

Hat's off, Terry. Looks and sounds great. Good design and the National-style head is a nice touch.

Olli, pretty sure there were two by Larry Progreba and two by Paddy Burgin. Sure glad I didn't trip over my amp cord carrying one back to its case. Tight quarters and lots of musical instruments.

Think we guys all know the power of that eyeroll, Rick. It's like a DEW Line in any given conversation but especially ones involving new musical instruments or gear.

Thanks again for your out of the blue kindness, Mark. I call that truckma. Versus the "what you deserve" of karma. Ha. Not entirely sure I actually need another Weissenborn, though. Lindley ...

You'd be grinning like an idiot, too, if you're a David Lindley fan. Last weekend, Lindley played two sold out shows in our town -- Penticton, BC. I went to both. Friday with my wife and Saturday by m ...

One more testimonial. Doug's tab books opened the world of C6 lapsteel for me. Good arrangements and the recordings as something to aspire to -- especially that intonation. Didn't take too long before ...

I don't think too many Americans worry about that, Doug. No disrespect here. My wife is Californian. And the ex. But I do laugh when I hear something like 'knitch' instead of 'neesh' for the French wo ...

My son is fluent in Japanese, Doug, and advises teh-su-ko or as above a truncated tess-ko ['teh' E as in 'ten']and goo-ya-tone is what a JAPANESE person would say. No real stresses on the syllables. I ...

A couple of people have emailed or PM'd me. I've got a pdf copy of that Fly Me to the Moon tab if anyone else wants it. Email address above.

In the meantime, you can see quite a bit of Wood's playing on this version of the song.

Great tune and performance.

Just copied the comment from the site re Lindley's tunings and certainly not based on scholarship on my part. Mostly added for the bit about the mandocello strings and low G, which Lindley explained o ...

Looks like you would add a low F# and A. Here is a link to an 8-string set you can buy via the Forum. My lapsteels are all six string.

A6 tuning. C# E F# A C# E. Open, you have three A chord inversions. At the fifth fret, D, with same inversions of course. And at 7th fret, E chord. That tuning is low to high. Same strings as a C6 set ...

Duesenberg Fairytale. Or a Pomona 6. Hard to decide.

Apart from the Hawaiian or country swing sound, Mark, there's an awful lot you can play in 6th tunings. Pretty well everything, in fact. The main advantage of the 6th tunings is having various full mi ...

Excellent. Several plays. Thanks for the free download.

Like the asymmetry of the design. Classy.

Worth checking out the Superiors in your price range. I've been happy with my Sitka spruce top Weissenborn with Sunrise pickup. Not a lot of volume unplugged, though. I'll be looking for a deeper bodi ...

Wow. Great stuff. Thanks for the link.
