Presently living and working in northeast Alabama, but will retire next summer and move to Brownsville, Texas. Have played 6 string and elec. bass for 40 yrs, and have always admired the PSG and those who play it. Finally got my first E9,(sing neck)Pedal Steel about 4 months ago. It is a '76 Wheeler Ped-All. It is an oldie but it is in good shape and everything works on it, except me. But, I am learning and I am passionately committed. Like all beginners, I am struggling with blocking, picking the right strings, etc..., but I am making progress. I won't give up. Just wanted to say howdy to all and say that I am proud to in the family of PSG enthusiasts. Regards |

Welcome to the Forum, Robert. Once you get down here, be sure to look up Lee Holeman. He lives right up the road from Brownsville, in San Benito. _________________ Lee, from South Texas - Down On The Rio Grande

Either I'm right, or there is a sinister conspiracy to conceal the fact that I'm right.
