Zane is one of the most creative and clean players in the business. He has such great ideas of how to dress a song up without turning it into a hot lick conglomeration that takes away from the structure of the song. Zane has no shortage of hot licks, but he knows just how and when to use them. A true pro and one of my favorite players. Hope to meet him someday.

Rick...you said it better than I could...Zane is a GREAT Player.
Zane here are some words that you can take comfort in reading, knowing as a performer, people who know nothing about you, are quick to judge your effort.
From A Speech delivered over 100 years ago by President Teddy Roosevelt, it goes in part.
THE MAN IN THE ARENA
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Zane I wish you the best...and thanks for your willingness to help your fellow Steel Players. |

| I see Zane's picture in early years using a BMI. Zane Beck sent me a BMI when he was allowed to build geetars. He sold his ZB company and agreed to hold off building guitars for a while as part of the deal. So he sent me one as soon as he was building them. He sent me different pickups to experiment on the sound I wanted. On my DVD, I was using the 2nd one he made for me in the 'Faded love' song. But when he passed on, and my back was giving out, Bud Carter built me a nice ax. I still have them. You can see them in my link in 'Steel for sale' section. I only need one guitar as of now. Ted |
