Here's a short clip 1:32 OF a 4:15 minute cut. The Song gets into more Swingy Jazz. With the Big Band sound . On the "Steel Havin Fun III Album.".. Thanks, Ron

Ron, I really like that swing music. My only complaint, is I want to hear the whole thing. It sounded great. When I hear others playing this type of music, it makes me want to turn on my BIAB and start practicing. Thaks and keep up the good work on the C6 neck. Larry

Wow, Ron, That is some of the nicest sound on the C6th neck which I've had the privelege of hearing, for an up-tempo piece of music..A great job done by a fine steel guitarist.. Keep up the good work, and send us more of this excellent tuning.. I LOVE IT.. Bernie

Ron, Great picking on the C-6th neck, but your BIAB is too loud. There is too much competition with your guitar.  |

I guess this is my opportunity to say Brother, that's a nice C6th workout! I tell all my pickin' buddies about you and to look you up whenever they go to Nashville. I lot of steel pickers probably don't know the impact you had down here in Pasadena when you played at Gillies'. You and Larry Bob were at it neck to neck. That was some of the finest playing I've ever heard you do. You have the talent and the soul of a true steel guitarist. I am so proud to be your brother. Keep havin' fun and pick one for me brother. Adios!!!

Danny, You told me your brother was good, but you didn't say he is great! I love to hear someone expand the range of the instrument. I love the Ray Price classics too, but, hey, sometimes we need to venture out to a broader spectum. Nicely done.

Jim, thanks for the nice compliment on Ron. Yes, he is really a great steel player and has the feel and heart for steel that he acquired while we were both very young. Not to mention, he's a very good song writer! I have learned a lot from him. We're both going to the convention this next weekend and he's bringing his Emmons to the hotel where we're staying. So, I'm sure we will not get much sleep. Hopefully, we can get some other pickers to join us and all learn some things. I hope to see you at the convention. If not, then the next Katy meeting. Take care.

Steve! To Answer your Question,,,If you click on the right side button on utube, it will enlarge the video,, then you will see the pedal rods moving. I am Frequently using pedal four,,and pedal five, ,, and some on pedal eight. I also utilize my right /right knee lever to raise my A to A sharp.. If you listen close, you will hear the pulls. This video is only a short version,, The four minute cut will get into more pedals&knees to get a jazzy/swing sound... I just got back from the convention!! It was great!! Now I must unCASE my steel,, you have a good day...
I would like thank the following for their nice comments!!
Danny,Bill,Joe,Willy,Jim,and Steve. Thank you guys for the nice compliments and have a great Week & Weekend!! Ron |
