This is an idea I came up with to help compose and tab my steel music.
I bring up my ClicTab software on the monitor and place my new Desktop Steel in front thereof.
Saves running back and forth to my regular steel.
I can record with my Webcam Mike and it comes out pretty cool without pickup. Serves my purposes just fine. Here is a clip MP3 of the little new instrument.

Take a look at my site and available music if you have not already done so.
Regards
Roy T

Thanks Ron!
This is so convenient Compose/Arrange, Play, Tab and
test record from this one station without moving and
save everything to file.

| One of the things that was so appealing to me about the MSA SuperSlide was that I can pick it up and put it right where yours is, or beside me, or on a standing height drawing board (a great resonator!) In fact the biggest problem I have when I get the 3am creepies is that it's still too loud - I have to muffle it with a bath towel. |

| That's a very pretty arrangement of Hawaiian Lullaby, Roy. Does this mean that we might see a book of Hawaiian songs from you soon? I hope so! |

Roy,
Very neat looking and a nice sound. Would you share some construction details with us. I've been thinking of something like this to keep in the truck.
