Wow, this is a great way to spend $25, well worth the money...and I've haven't even seen 15% of it yet.

Dang Joe, sorry to hear about your dog, I know I've spent some $$ on ours. Good luck my friend, hope you stay busy!

Over the years, I have witnessed several other groups in the area that were obviously thrown together at the last minute, with pickup musicians...Not very professional.

yep,Teal Green is the color, have a P bass that looks identical.

John, I don't think Just Play the Melody teaches much new information, but it does do a good job of showing how to connect what you learned from Up From the Top. I found it helpful.

Back on topic, I learned to play from Newman's courses. IMO there is not a perfect teacher, what may be great for one may be not for another. But for me, Jeff Newman was a bullseye when I started st ...

Because Harry, I love chiles! I grew those jalapenos, picked them, took that picture, then ate 'em.

We've had a few rare freezes down here in S TX, so all my chiles are gone. No worry, I'll soon ...

John, I would suggest either The Chord Connection and/or Just Play The Melody as your next courses from Jefran. They both are great and will keep you busy, then move on to Minor Chord course.

The Up From The Top course was for the A&B pedals and the D&F levers, nothing else. If you're learning to play steel, that will keep you busy for awhile. Look for some the other Newman cours ...

Ronald, I've seen pics of this before and always have admired it. Great looking steel, very classy. Can't speak for this one, but my Derby has a sound I really enjoy. Plays easy too. Lot of SS under ...

Dickie, do you think? It's mighty red, Hot Rod Red. Who needs to exercise when you can look down at this and your heart rate increases, get your cardio workout while playing!

What I'd like to ...

Earlier I posted a pic of a friend's Excel and got some positive feedback, and for a few hours even I thought I was cool. But I'm not. I have a Derby and Carter and the logos are there. I've seen t ...

go-kat-go.

Go to "search site" and type 'trucker girl'. It's the mini trucker girl for $9.99. He says it doesn't help his playing but truckers honk when they drive by.

Wow, never underestimate the affect of a shiny silhouette of a naked woman in a suggestive pose. Thanks for the compliments, but that ain't mine. It belongs to an irreverent friend who obviously has ...

Well, we did a highly scientific test yesterday at the Legion with a zirc vs BJS bar, played on a universal MSA Millennium, and Bud Light was the beer of choice. He constantly changed bars throughout ...

This Friday & Saturday I played with a Canadian couple's band, their steel player had a mild heart attack and is out a few days. They used the Bose L-1 PA with subwoofer, a single tower.

I'm taking my zirc bar to The American Legion tomorrow afternoon to let a friend try it during his gig. So Ed, you may have another customer wanting a 15/16". If he wants one he better hurry, y ...

Just ordered my 2nd zirc bar. Got my first bar earlier this year and it's all I've used. I love the feel of the zirc bar, and real or not, I can tell a subtle difference in tone. It's going in my s ...

I bought a Vypyr 75 not long ago to use for guitar, and bought it on the advice of a longtime steeler/guitar player. I was looking for something cheap and light.

He borrowed it recently because ...
