My friend Phil Coggan from South Wales in the UK, who is an excellent guitar player, decided to try his hand at lap steel. He modified a Telecaster a USA 52, re-issue. This is his first lap steel recording.
I think he deserves encouragement!

| Yes, I'd say that was pretty darn good for a beginner. Nice sound also. Tommy...... |

I think he deserves it too, a very good effort and I hope this is just the start of Phil's enjoyment with the Steel Guitar.

| That's pretty amazing for someone's first effort. I've known people who've been playing steel for years who couldn't improve on that. |

| Amazing. This must be the same Phil Coggan that is one of the finest firearms engravers in the world. I had no idea he also played steel. |

Phil thanks you all. Yes, Ron, the very same the same Phil Coggan that you mention...
I stand corrected. He played this with a slider and without raising the strings on the Telecaster.... I'd say that is exceptional technique.
