Don't know if I copied this link correctly but I like this lick at 2:43 in this tune.
It's a Jason Boland tune crazy or Mexico
As a beginner I don't have much of an idea how it's done.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance |

I suspect you mean the lick at 2:53. Use the B&C pedals starting at the 14th fret and working down chromatically to the 12th fret, and then release the B&C pedals and bring in your knee lever lowering the 4th string a half tone, and work your way down from the 12th fret to the 10th fret, one fret at a time. All of this is on the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th strings.
This is a very common country picking pattern that every new player should learn. I covered this in my YouTube video on the B&C pedals, part 2.
Here's the link: https://youtu.be/spj4136YIDE
specifically starting at 4:20 and again at 6:25.
Where in California are you?

Thanks Paul,
I'm in Hollister, but I also have property near Madera.
I appreciate the help, I recognized the lick as a common steel lick, but couldn't replicate it, I'm going in now to try and learn it.
I'm always impressed by the camaraderie here on the forum I've learned a great deal just by reading the posts in the different subject lines. |

I'll be playing at the Udder Place (that's really the name) in Turlock on June 22nd, and again on July 6th. If you have a place nearby where we can meet up, I'd be glad to show you a few things. Or you can drive to Placerville most anytime.

A Californian who is into Boland? There is hope yet!

Paul, thanks for the invite but Turlock is a putt, and I'd have to drive home that evening as well I wish I could make it. I'd enjoy just watching !
If I was closer I'd come up and sit with you so I could learn, I'm an old six string player who got into steel a little over a year ago.
I bought an Emmons D10 LL from Lynn Stafford last Nov. and couldn't be happier.
Thanks again and I'll take advantage of your tutorials on YouTube. |
