A little sound bite - I've been trying to get sound out of this guitar for awhile - here goes - I'm accompanying Kathleen Kolman, an accomplished singer from my area.

EDIT:

I have created a set of our first demo CD

Sounds like you're on the right track, Carl. A little sound bite is good, but we want a bigger bite. We want more! It's nice to see that you're gravitating to non-pedal steel. Did you ever get your Sho-Buds set up the way you wanted?

Thanks, Doug. THe PSG's are in the cases. I got one lever added to one of the S-10's, the other one is scheduled to become a 5 pedal C6 S-10. The nice thing about non-pedal is you tune them once and they're set.

I'll get some more audio clips out there Smile

Thanks, everyone. Kathleen's from Montana and I think we'd have better luck selling the gig out there, but me and my family aren't about to move from New England. I still enjoy playing the style, along with straight ahead jazz, which is how I met Kathleen over 15 years ago.

Carl, the songs won't play. The page says "This set contains only private tracks....."

Doug:

This stuff is too confusing - I made the set public, but the tracks private - guess I have to make the tracks public in order to have the set public Confused Confused

Try again - sorry for that!
