This is me practicing on a homemade 8 string lap steel with a little gritty gain on the small Fender amp I'm using. I picked the best of what I did and edited it using iMovie to do the whole thing. Fun toys! Thanks for watching. Don

Don-I went to Thailand briefly, but I experienced durian fruit in Malaysia, where I played steel for Mathew Tan,. I remember, one night breaking about 6 .11 or .12 gauge strings in a row. That was a nightmare! Chris _________________ Excel 3/4 Pedal With An 8 String Hawaiian Neck, Sierra Tapper (10 string with a raised fretboard to fret with fingers), Single neck Fessenden 3/5
