Very nice!

Team Steel-

Most of my followers do not know or understand the steel. I have taken my first big step of recording steel over a friend's song. He likes it and allowed me to post it. I have been a me ...

The "Teach Your Children" mistake was a really annoying part of the book. If Garcia had done a scratch take on a lap steel prior to doing the final part, that would have been interesting eno ...

Thanks for the replies, guys! This was my first shot at tabbing anything for the steel as I am a rank beginner. I still don't have a complete view as to how great players hit their chords. I just base ...

Hi All. I am a beginner steel player that loves Ben's work with Neil. A friend was planning to play Deep Forbidden lake at a gig and I offered to accompany him on steel. So then I knew I had to learn ...

Ronnie.....hmmm...I found an old unused 3/4 in thick piece of shelving in the bathroom and placed it under my left heel. It's a bit early to declare total victory, but by the feel of things, I think t ...

There is a video on youtube of Neil Young playing "Words (Between the Lines of Age)" with his band including the great Ben Keith. Ben does use his little finger, though in an interesting way ...

Thanks Bud. I've already lowered the pedals as much as I can...Time to go after the next lowest hanging fruit Smile

I love the recommendation for more "seat time" and it was nice to see that folks didn't go for the more genre compatible "saddle time" even though that would be more appropriate fo ...

Jim-

The first time I heard a major 3rd was in Winterlong by Neil Young. I really enjoy Ben Keith's part in that song. This is the version on Decade that was recorded sometime around the "On T ...

I'm guessing Neil has Ben Keith's Emmons S10. And that he'll never let anyone else ever play it.

Thanks, everyone. I think that ear training is very key for me. I have been playing, writing and even recording music for about 25 years, but there has been inconsistency and gaps. Sometimes (I'm emba ...

Thank you everyone. I need to soak in as much PSG as I can this week, as I start a new job on the 18th. And then not as much time will I have. Hanging with players is the right idea, if I can squeeze ...

Please go ahead and send me a personal if you would like a copy of my charts. I can then reply with the attachments. Best regards,

I finally got serious with my steel during the last few months. I wanted to share some observations and get some inputs.

It's taken me some time to make sense of the instrument and find some chords ...

How does plastic sweat? Is this just condensation from moisture in the air?
I had originally covered the steel with a
tapestry but the fibers from the tapestry
were getting into the changer and it did ...

I didn't see this thread and I made one out
of clear plastic sheet and clear duct tape.
And no, I didn't buy this stuff for a bioterrorism attack :-)

My question is....is this an OK long term solutio ...

Thank You. I got under the guitar and adjusted LKL so that it would engage more left of center. Actually, the kneebar, the way it was, was hanging slightly to the right and would engage just right of ...

I found the serial number. It's 1205 S

Another forum member mentioned the increasing difficulty in rocking to the A pedal without moving LKL.

Well, I'm only 33 and this is one part of PSG that really frustrates me! Granted, I am only just ...

I've had a love-hate relationship with my Emmons S-10. I believe it is a 1971 PP set up in Emmons E9 with a fourth pedal which is 1/2 of the Franklin change. It also has 4 knee bars. Truth is, I purch ...
