Thank you for putting this together as usual; I will be there! If I promise not to mess up Goodhearted Woman like I did last year can we do "I Love You Because...?" Winking

Larry, huge thanks to you for making this happen; I have been waiting for this since the last note of "Steel Guitar Rag" at the end of the set last May, and have especially been waiting to t ...

it’s the same speaker as in the Steelaire .
Dale

Thank you, that is music to my ears as I've played through the Steelaire and like that speaker.

Curious if anyone is using these for pedal steel, or if anyone has any opinions on how steel sounds through the "Custom voiced 15” Eminence" speaker that it ships with. I play a lot of c6 ...

Back when I was primarily a non-pedal c-6th player I was in a similar boat as you, so I will tell you some of what I learned on that journey. First,in my opinion, 3 pedals and 4 levers is not enough ...

This sounds like a really great practice tool! Can you lay down the chords for it to learn using the pedal steel (either with volume pedal all the way up or no vp in the chain), or do you find that ...

I have owned a Gold Tone 8-string and agree that that bridge is a pain for changing strings. I don't know if you've tried this already, but removing the decorative cover / "palm rest" helps ...

hi! Just by way of wrap-up, a U-12 very fortuitously showed up in the for sale section, which is coming to my house this weekend thanks to an awesome forum member! For the time-being I plan on play ...

Thanks for explaining that; makes sense when you think of it like a sixth tuning. All of this is making me think I need to take a big step back and think this through a little more, especially now tha ...

My recommendation would be to set it up with pedals/levers pretty much identically to his D10.
Fwiw, I played a Uni last week with E-lowers on LKR.
It did not seem like an issue at all to hold over ...

Thank you Ian and J.D. for all of your posts (in this thread and all over the forum!); I will think long and hard about whether I want D's on both strings 8 and 9. Also like your thinking about putti ...

I am interested! I will PM you. Are your changes on levers or pedals or both? I'm torn between wanting to keep it light and wanting some extras. Also forgot to ask in the OP if there are any place ...

I am strongly considering a Williams U-12 for a second lighter gigging / travel guitar. (I play a Williams D-10 right now and love it, and have experimented with enough lap steel tunings back in the ...

Here is a thread from a while back on the bebop scales. If you scroll down to Rick Schmidt's post he has included a seminar he did on the 6 Dim harmonized scale. He also includes tab for both C6 and E ...

Cool demos Zach. It also works on E9 but is slightly less intuitive. Great practice for half pedal diminished voicings though!

I was curious about how this would work on E9 too; thanks for the tip ...

here is some audio! the first clip is the scale and chords over a static g-major chord. At the very end you can hear me jump up to the twelfth fret with pedal 7 down, but I didn't have time to play ...

I wanted to share something that has really opened up my c6 playing, and jazz guitar playing for that matter. It's a sound that I've heard a lot of old C6 players utilize, and though I'm not sure the ...
