Sorry for the dress standard and clutter in the background Rolling Eyes but I just started the camera for fun and to see if I could do this whole you-tube thing. Feel free to comment as I am newbie to the steel guitar thing as you can see with blocking and slants. Thanks to Doug Beaumier for tracks and tab - loving it!! The lap steel is one of my own builds.

Jeff, that sounds great! Nice guitar too, I like the pickup. I'm in the same boat as you. I go to an Open Mic every Monday and the same hosts rotate there every 4 or 5 weeks. Last Monday the host smiled and said "you've been practicing!" I think it's more playing than practicing. We get better without realizing. I call it baptism by fire!

I like it!

And your lap steel looks very nice!

Any chance you could build me one?

Very Happy

Thank you so very much for taking the time folks. Do not underestimate the encouragement value of your comments, particularly to me. I value it all. This community in it's willingness to share is such a great asset to me/us. Steve - that is a great pic!!

Thanks again.
Best regards to you all
