How did Lloyd do it? I've tried using:
1) strings 1 and 3 using the B pedal
2) strings 1 and 3 no pedals (using bar movement instead of the B pedal)
3) strings 3 and 4 using the C pedal
4) strings 1 and 4 no pedals -starting WAY high up the neck

3 seems to work best for me. Smile

Option #4 is what always spoke to me the strongest.
Long ago I swore off guessing, speculating or claiming to know how Lloyd actually played something so I'm not talking about that at all. Just what feels/sounds right when I play with it.

I use #1, but I'm pretty sure Lloyd used #2. See the following at 1:05:

Pretty much the same lick starting further down the neck.

Pretty much the same lick as Motel Time Again. Don't know what Lloyd used, but for me, I like option #1.

Those Little Darlin' recordings are the apex of country music. Lloyd never sounded better.

I totally forgot about that treasure trove of vids of Nancy with Lloyd. Yes!

I find it really hard to do without the B pedal. I guess that's why he's Lloyd and I'm, well, .... not.

I think you just gotta wiggle that bar more, like over exagerated vibrato as oppossed to pedaling that trill. Smile

Thanks for confirming Rick. Smile
