no no, of course not. I just got a 12 string here on the forum about three months ago or so and am comfortable enough with it that I am ready to leave the double neck 10 stringers behind.

interesting custom built Derby for sale. Bought from Scotty's in STL in late 2005 and has had a tune up at Scotty's within the last year. E9 standard setup 3x4 and a C6 non pedal neck. Apparently this ...

Are the Truetone's fairly quiet? Do they have a "smooth" sound for country also (I play mostly new country where the sound isn't as bright IMO)?

Have an E-66 on a 12 string guitar that I intend to use for both country and rock playing. Obviously, the E-66 doesn't provide the rounded sound I need for this.

Are any of you interested in going to see Robert Randolph at the Pageant Thursday November 9th?

Even though there is less steel on this album, there are sure some flashes of brilliance. GOing through and kind of getting a feel for what he does on each track, he has some bursts of speed on this ...

This is definately more mainstream than the first album with less steel emphasis, but still some incredible playing on it. More emphasis on the beat but some good jams.

Anyone else on this forum have ...

althougth throwing his leg over the neck is entertaining, I have never heard anybody pick like him. It is a different style so making comparisons between him and buddy or him and paul isn't worth the ...

Just an update on this thing...

My quest for finding a Robert Randolph'ish tuning has been difficult. I wanted to modify my non-pedal 10 string neck I originally had as a C6 to something more "rock". ...

gotcha. I don't endorse it, but compared to other forms of secular music, country has always been pretty PG rated. That wouldn't even be on the radar screen as offensive in the Hip Hop world.

Jerry,
sorry for confusing your reference. That is the only one I hear people talking about as possibly being questionable.

Mark,

that is great stuff. So Clay Cook originally worked with John Mayer? Was he ever credited with any of the music? John is one of my all time favorites so I would be curious to know.

Hey Jim,

It is a song of Keith Urban's first solo album (when he used to actually do some chickin picken). It is an instrumental called Rollercoaster. Great tune with a GREAT steel break. Very nice d ...
