Wow!! 
That's some wild reverse slants you're doing near the end, is that a regular "Stevens-style" bar you're using?

Steinar,
that is a Scheerhorn chrome plated steel bar. The video quality is not good for some reason, so let me explain:
the wild one of the reverse slants is freted at 1st string 5th fret and 3rd string 7th fret and has got a string bend at the 2nd string. |

Yeah, that's what I imagined I saw (and heard) - kinda kills the old saying that you can't do fast reverse slants with those bars.....

| Great job, Martin. Randy Lynn Rag was the first tune that "Uncle Josh" Graves recorded with Flatt and Scruggs. |
