My second attempt at songwriting for steel. I did this on my '49 McKinney.
If I had to describe the tune, I guess it would be Everly Brothers meets Pink Floyd

Nice work Richard. You coax a wonderful sound out of that guitar. Really nice touch.
If you're looking for advice on the tune, I'd advise adding a drum track, something simple. Brushes instead of drumsticks would sound really nice on that I think. |

Thanks for the replies!
Bill B. the tuning is open D
Bill L. I actually recorded it to a closed hihat sound click track. I thought it sounded cheesy so I left it out of the final mix.  Maybe I'll sequence a bare bones drum track when I have more time.
