I woke up at about 4:00am this morning and turned on the tube to try to get back to sleep by watching a boring science show...lo and behold the Science Channel, provided by Dish Network, had a 15min stint on how a pedal steel is made. It was a Fulawka guitar and looked to be filmed at the factory. I guy played some nice E9 stuff too. I wasn't able to go back to sleep.

Anybody else see this?

Hey guys, what you saw was Eddie Fulawka in his "factory" which is a 2 car garage. The player you saw was of course Ollie Strong. He lives about 30 miles from Eddie.
