Does anyone know if Kelly Willis has a steel player in her band? I have a chance to see her for free, but it is a choice between her and the Derailers (also for free, it is a work thing). The Derailer ...

I have that CD. That is one of my all time favorite solo's - amazing playing.

Van Zants.

I heard Ricky playing the Fulawka back when he was still playing with Dale, and man, what a great sounding steel. You could hear every note, but it wasn't loud. Absolutely great tone.
Now, the driver ...

I have gotten a bunch of speakers from Weber and I liked all of them, good to deal with too.

Good info, good speakers, also - [url=http://www.webervst.com/sptalk.html]http://www.webervst.com/sptalk.html

Pine.
You are supposed to use void free southern yellow pine, but I just go to home depot and buy the better, clear pine - no knot holes.

What Jim said. GREAT guitar club and recording amp. I put a Weber alnico speaker in, great county tele sound. It is a little mid rangy for steel. Part of that is the 6V6's, too.

Great, Thanks!

When I get some time I will tear it apart and rebuild it more like a twin. This will help alot, tracing wires can be a nightmare! Winking

Brett -

I would like a schematic, if you have one.
Since it would appear to be not a lot different than a BF twin, it would probably be an easy mod. I'm not crazy about the tone stack, so changing t ...

Interesting project. I have one of these amps, sounds like the same one. Good sound but I was thinking about getting into it and modding it.

I had to comment on this.

I am right handed, but both of my guitar playing brothers were lefty's and play that way. I've tried playing left handed, and can not do it. I feels completely wrong.

Hey Ricky, are you talking about that Sho-Bud amp you sold me? I didn't think those were JBL's in there, they did look like no name brand, but I'd have to get another look.

I found the TT really quiet for a single coil, so there is definetly something in how it is built.

Ricky, are you doing that continental gig every Sat? I need to come down and catch that - that would be a great sat afternoon.

I heard Nyquil Blues on the way to work this morning on the radio.
One of the advantages of living in Austin.

Interesting. I didn't think about the scale length, I just thought you liked a heavier string. Looking into it, it looks like my GFI is also 24" - so now I got to try out one of your sets and see how ...

3/16 hex driver or socket - got one in a hardware store for a couple bucks, have also used the one from my racket set a couple of times

South Austin music bought out a steel guitar store a while back, so he has some stuff.

Ok, I tested last night -

Used a Peterson tuner as a sound source, constant sine wave type of sound.

Thanks, Ricky, I'll try that.
