Gentleman,
I'm new to Playing Steel (About 4 Mts) and really am working hard and enjoying it. I have some Tab on Amazing Grace but really don't enjoy this Tab, just wondering if anyone can help me out on some different style of Tab on Amazing Grace or where to find it? I do appreciate all the help!

Sincerely,

Bobby.

Bobby,
Send me your snail mail address and I will send you the left-handed Norwegian version of this great old gospel song. It's done up in E9th is that's what you are looking for.
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord!

Bobby,
I need your "snail" mail address. All my tabs go out through the US Postal Service.

The Dewitt Scott`s Deluxe pedal steel book has an easy enough version of it. In fact that book is a regular treasure trove of easy to play songs. Jim

Jim,

Thanks for the help. Being new to Steel I'm still learning the different places to go to find all of this kind of information. I appreciate it. Bobby.

bobby i got a course from scotty's in st louis it is about learning how to read steel music. after i got the course i found out that no one writes notes for steel they do it on tab sheets. but this book helped me a lot to learn some songs. it also has several gospel songs as well as others. this book is worth a bunch it sure helped me a lot. also there is a instructional tape out by bruce bouton get it it will help you a lot it sure helped me and bruce is a very good instructor he takes his time and explains things as he goes along. happy pickin. doc

Bobby, if you send me your snail mail address I will send you a copy of a version I tabbed out. It has single string first and double string the second time around. Good luck. Amazing Grace was one of the first songs I learned. I never get tired of playing it.

Thanks Gentleman with all your help, nothing more frustrating than trying to learn this Steel Business and finding people not willing to help. This has not been the case with me and my encounters, people have been willing to help me in anyway they can, what has been great news is how many ways Amazing Grace can be played as well as any song, that's just awesome. I have a few versions now, but my ultimate goal is to learn to play by ear and my own style for now I can still only play by Tab... and I don't want to get stuck playing Tab... only. Thanks again Gentleman with all your advice and Help. Erv, I received the Tab... snail mail and much appreciate your efforts, I promise I wont forget you. Many Blessings to you all, Bobby.
