I saw Bobbe 8 years ago (?) at my first (and only) steel guitar convention in St. Lou, and his non-pedal playing blew me away. When I spoke to him years later about a boo-wah pedel he mailed me one o ...

Thanks Ricky. Do you like the newfangled pedals? I want to tell you I saw you in Milwaukee at a little bar called the Uptowner (3 years ago?) near the beginning of my steel "career", and you were co ...

I have no way of trying them here in town. How do they differ compared to my sho-bud or fender? Tim.

I've been using a Fender (Boo-wah) and an old Sho-Bud volume pedal and am thinking of upgrading to a Hilton or the new Goodrich. I imagine my pedals are "high". What would the advantantage be to goi ...

Scott: I took your advise. Reading those posts will keep me busy. Thanks, Tim.

Thanks for the input. Any other suggestions out there? I don't want to buy a pig in a poke. Thanks, Tim.

I played my first gig out Saturday with my new Remington 2x8, which has a great tone. My Fender Hot Rod DeVille sounded great on C6, but could not handle the low end of E13, the new tuning I’m lear ...

Thanks for all of your replys. David Donald: you are right. It seems best to just turn the gears and go. Boy can those strings stretch!!! John Bechtal: there is truth in sticking to one tuning, a ...

Chris: Both Leon and Barney have the same notes -- the B note appears higher on the scale in Leon's (at the third string) than in Barney's. Do you see an advantage of one or the other? If I had two ...

Well it's time to torture myself (and bandmates) with a new tuning, now that my C6 is (barely) bearable, and I’ve acquired a D8. I’m thinking E13 is the next step, but there are many varieties to ...

The radio transcripts are a lot of fun. I have Tenneshoe Ernie Ford, and it has a great live feel and good banter with the band mates. Those guys sure seem like they're having fun. It's hard to ima ...

Thanks everybody. Jason, I did not mean to misquote you -- sorry. Since my friend owns the store I would like to offer a fair price. (However, I need another guitar like a hole in the head). Any i ...

A friend has this at a local music store, Rockhaus. Does anyone know this manufacturer, or any historical info? The headstock is silk-screened, not a decal. Rockhaus said they had seen the logo onc ...

Bump for the weekend.

I have fabricated some legs for my Gibson Console, but had to use set legs (as opposed to adjustable legs) due to materials, cost, etc. I need to cut the legs to length, and have to decide on a gener ...

Thanks for the tip Russ. Tim.

Well, I've stuck with this confounded thing long enough now where I am prepared to drop some real dough, but don't know what to buy. I have an old Bronson and Oahu student model now. Any advice would ...

Thanks for the tip Aaron. Tim.

I need four Gibson Consolette legs, and would prefer not to rout / modify. A store in town said they believed the threads look like old mike stands. I'm coming up with 5/16ths".

Reading links like these make it apparent what a great resource we have in the SGF. In these trying times it is comforting to feel such a great sense of community and brotherhood. Perhaps non-pedal r ...

Thanks Jeff. I'm working out of the Stacy Phillips book. He transcribes Sol Hoopii tunes in Bm as I listed (as well as Bm7). Again, thanks for your time.

How does the C# m relate to the Bm? F#, B, D,F#, B, D. Thanks. Tim.
