A Big Hello to everyone,
To anyone interested, I just posted my latest video on youtube, using my 1998 SD-10 Emmons Lashley LeGrande III.
click here for "Farewell Party"
Yes the strings are over a year old, so there's zing in the sound, but I wanted to see how well she recorded just as she was.
I'd be interested in hearing all opinions (as always) whether or not, they are Good, Bad, or Indifferent.
Thanks a whole lot for giving a listen. More should be coming soon, as long as my health allows me to continue.
Note: Video was recorded using the Emmons, with my old Peavey Session 500. No other effects were added.
Thanks again for taking the time to listen...... Don |

Hey brother Don, your old buddy from N.J. is still watching you,
and I think your really doing great as always. I sure wish we
could get together again like the old days, but we can at least still
comunicate with each other. Keep up the great steeling my fiend.
I love "Farewell Party" I always played it for my Mom and Dad.

Hey Dale,
Thanks a lot. You sure are right in asking if I'm a bit too old to be packing that old Session 500 around.
These days, it's a piece of cake. I don't even pack myself around much anymore. So whenever I need it moved I get my son to do the moving. He thought my old Fender Twin was heavy, so I had to let him see what amp was really heavy. He said he's glad I only play at home now..
Thanks again,
Don |

Howdy Carl,
Thanks a whole lot. I'm not doing so great, but I am having a whole lot of fun and relaxation trying to get back some of what once was. A very difficult task, but it's fun anyway.
Yes, getting together would be a lot of fun. Steel players in this area are few and far between.
Last time I heard you play on your video you were doing a real nice job and seemed to really be having fun. Keep up the good work.
I learned if I can keep smiling that's what's important. On bad days, it's a whole lot better than not.
Thanks again,
Your old NJ friend,
Don |

That sounded great. I hope whatever is ailing you subsides and you can put more stuff up pronto. Keep them coming. |

As you know, regardless of what opinions you may have, Good, Bad or Indifferent, I always like reading what you have to say.
Again, Thanks so very much for taking the time to stop by.
Edited for a PS:
Thanks a whole lot for the ones I never got around to replying back to, until now, which include:
Matthew, Charles, Joseph and Daniel. Please accept my sincere appologies. This thread disappeared and I just now did a search and found it.
I really appreciate all of your replies.
Thanks so very much,
Your friend,

Hi Joseph,
The D-10 that's covered to the right of me, is my Black 2005 Carter 8+5. My Red 2004 Carter D-10 8+5 is in the other room, and my old original 1968 G.E.S. D-10 8+4, is still stripped down for her cabinet repairs, that I never (yet) got around to doing. Hopefully one day, I'll get her back up and playing again, if my health allows me to.
Thanks a whole lot for watching my Video. And keep up that great work!
Your friend,
Don |

Joe,
My wife said to tell you she said the same thing you did about the steel guitars.... )
Each one I bought with good intentions of selling one and they all (now) play so well I hate parting with them. Carters are one of the best playing steels I've owned. As is the Emmons now too.
However, one day, I'd like to pick up a good D-10 ZUM. So I guess you know that's when I'll be putting one or two of these up for sale.
Thanks again,
Don |
