I just happened across a rendition of "Nothing but the blood of Jesus" on [U tube] by Marc James on a Lap steel. Beautiful, Mellow and !!!!!!!!!!!!. Does any one know the Tuning or Key he was playing in? I don't think he had picks on for one thing.

Thank you Brad. I wonder how that would sound if I tuned my old 1936 Sears and gave it a shot. Or I could get [un] lazy and retune my 8 string Lap. But I'm intrigued.
