Looking for one of them super lightweight SGI steels from Fuzzy. If you know, you know. Please shoot me a message!

I'm moving back to Ireland soon (from Kenya) and my steel will be in the states. It's in my folks' care, and I actually packed it up the last time I was home so it's set.

But, what is the best or c ...

Thanks Markus, you're a hero...someday I'll get a U12 or EXT. E9....

I play many different styles of music including country and americana, and often when I'm playing I yearn for the lower register that just doesn't exist on my S-10. I'd like to make the transition to ...

To be clear, the pictures are just stock photos I found, not ones of my actual hands.
Ben, I'll certainly look into Joe Wright, he is a monster player.

Firstly, I want to say though this is a bit long, I would really appreciate if those of you who are super-experienced pedal steelers read through this whole post and chime in, because I would greatly ...

In this Danny O'Keefe tune apparently all the string section sounds are Pete on steel. Any idea what type of effects or techniques he used to get that?

Grazie mille, hai un registrazione audio della tua versione?

Scusa il mio italiano, non ho usato in un tempo lungo.

I've been playing 2 years now and though I've learned a few solos and licks note for note I haven't learned a single steel guitar instrumental all the way through. Since I'm a guitarist I've gotten a ...

Thanks for the comments, and that's a good Ricky tune Alan. I don't think comparing any part of my playing to The Big E is quite fair for Buddy though. I still haven't made it far past the E levers... ...

Right before I moved to Ireland a month ago, I had one last session a week before my flight. I played on a number of songs on guitar, bass and steel, but this one I am particularly proud of and wanted ...

I'm selling my 1968 Super Reverb, a drip edge model with the blackface AB763 circuit inside. It has been recently (a year ago) serviced and had a 3-prong grounded power cord put in, and a cap job to r ...

I'm moving to Ireland soon and would like to take a giggable, but very small amplifier with me. The only one that seems to fit the bill is the ZT Lunchbox and I was wondering if it could hold up at a ...

Thanks for the kind words, I just got out of the studio with my other band and it is more straight forward country, once it's mastered I'll be sure to share it on here. The studio album that the song ...

Hey guys, I've only been playing a bit under 2 years and guitar is my main gig, but here's some live work I did with a local singer here in DC, Tom McBride. Forgive the one clam in the solo, which com ...

I recently got a Hilton and I most definitely love it, but I see the old ones had gain and tone trim pots in addition to the sweep adjustment. I was wondering if the newer Hiltons have internal contro ...

Let me know if one pops up!

There are some great licks to be learned here! Much thanks Doug, you tabbed some gold.

I have a beautiful 70's MSA Classic in a natural maple finish that has been setup by a great player and fellow forumite, Paul Vendemmia. He warned me that eventually I would outgrow the steel if I wan ...
