I have a tab of this steel part, (Married to A Waitress, Alan Jackson), but its extremely hard for me. Does anyone have some technical expertise I could draw from or some advice?
Thanks,
Wayne Baker |

| Other than getting the (rather small) section into a sound editing proggy like Sonar, Sound Forge, Cool Edit or others, slowing it WAAYYY down and matching it to what the tab says, it's possible Larry Bell has some info on it, He seems to be the "uppest" on those tab questions that I've had. I take the section slowes way down and loop it while I play through it. I mean WAAAYYY down so you can hear pull offs, bar rolls etc. It's distorted somewhat, but it shows a lot of stuff. |

Unless somebody is seeing something I'm not, there aren't any tapes available at this site, and nothing but an order form for the listed CDs. No Email addy, or anything.
I got the two E9 CDs, and recommend them to anybody needing new ideas.
From just listening to the clips, and saying you have tab, it sounds like to me the open strings should be pretty well marked, and the decending run sounds "to me" like it uses backward thumb sweeps.
I too would like to be able to buy some of the older tapes etc, that are not available for borrowing, or checkout at a library, but there doesn't seem to be a PF source, at least not on his website.

EDIT:
I just realized that Wayne was not asking the question we are all answering (and I answer again below) 
If what you're asking is how does he play it so fast and clean, well . . . he's Paul Franklin. He plays many hours every day and he's treated steel guitar as a life's calling since he was a li'l 'un. Get the picture? There is no answer other than working hard on your technique, putting your fingers on the strings as much as possible, and being sure what you're doing is getting the right results. I would venture to guess that most of us on the Forum are probably never gonna be able to play that solo as fast and clean as Paul. But we can TRY!
===========my original answer===========
If you check out the Rebel 'n' Ricky tab page for 1994 . Bengt Erlandsen did an excellent job on the tab for the E9 solo. As I recall there's a C6 solo as well but I haven't taken the time to learn it. I believe Paul does/did have it on a taped lesson, but I think all that stock was sold long ago.

Paul had a tape of this. It's no longer available. I bought the last one.
First solo is E9, second is C6. |
