For those of you here on the SGF that have expressed interest in how to make 'that violin sound' with the steel guitar........

you'll want to visit the www.JerryByrd-FanClub.com site and go directly to the opening page. One of Jerry's more unusual recordings....'a Chinese tune', no less....on the Hawaiian Steel Guitar.

"China Night" gives some great examples of how to use the volume control with harmonics and straight string picking for that beautiful violin sound as some of you refer to it.

After you give it a listen, report back with your reaction, okay?

The tune can be located at the very bottom of the page and that's where the controller/player is located.
