Fantastic. Top Drawer. I've always loved those old tunes.

I don't get to play much E9th, but here's a clip from the sound check of an 'Hawaiian' themed gig I did recently. Recorded on a cellphone, so the sound ain't great. E9th was why I started on the Steel ...

Jon,
Billy Knowles supplied me with a crossbar which is fixed, and a number of bell cranks with short 'pull train' rods with nylon tuners and 'rubber O rings'.

Mike, I had the opportunity to play through a Telonics 12" at the SWSGA show in Mesa in Jan. My set was all C6 (except for one short tune on E9). I was really happy with the soun ...

I am very sorry to hear this sad news. I was fortunate to meet Rudy and Shelby at the Dallas convention a few years back. What a lovely couple. My condolences to family and friends for their loss.

I followed Rick's advice and do the A/Bb/B on both strings 4 & 8. I have it on rkl. I saw a post earlier that mentioned he liked C to B on rkr as it was an outward moving lever and it only had to ...

Just a bit of tongue in cheek.

Thanks everybody for your kind words. Now it's back to working on arrangements for a while. Sez.

Hi Folks,
Health warning: If you are a dedicated E9th player, this may not be for you.

I have been working on some Comping exercises for quite a while now.
These exercises are from the Barry Galb ...

Hello Bill. I enjoyed your version very much. Some very nice 'moves' there.
Great meeting you in Phoenix. Hope to connect up again before too long.

I want one.... it's a craving.

Hi Christopher.
It has a moment... or many...
Lovely stuff. Looking forward to much more.
Thanks for the info on the backing tracks. I'll check it out.

Hi Christopher.
That's fantastic. I wish I could be there. But I'm hoping that you will do a little vid, or at least a recording; if not of the whole show, then some of the highlights.
Have a great ...

I don't know Andy's playing. I feel I am missing something special.
But I do know and enjoy Rooseveldt's playing. Looking forward to the outcome of this project.

Everything Ray said and more. Lovely to hear some chord melody on E9th. Lots of emotion in your performance. Looking forward to more of this. Sez

Oops. Double post.

From a chordal perspective, I view the E9th tuning as being ideal for facilitating straight minor and major diads and triads; and the C6th tuning as being ideal for facilitatin ...
