Hey everybody... I am uploading some new steel guitar videos and testing out a new camera. I haven't put any new videos up in a while, but am now starting to once again. I just turned 23 and am ready to get back to playing steel more.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-Empz00VmY
Please let me know what you think 
I am also interested in doing more steel shows if anybody has any suggestions. The Lexington, KY show faded out so I really don't have many local shows to do other than Louisville and Chubby Howard's Show in Dayton each year.

Thanks Chris. I have 2 different versions of it, but didn't have access to both of them today so I went with the one I had programmed already. The other track has the other chords in it like the original version

sounds great! what lick are you doing right at 56-57 seconds, it's super cool, the walk up right before seems to just be you climbing using strings 2 and 4, but then you do a sweet little lick at the 56-57 second mark. please share! haha

Wow!!! thank you all for your nice comments!!
Jordan, that is a neat little run. The walk up is with strings 2 and 4. Then I use strings 1, 3, and 4. I raise the first string to G# (twins in unison with the open 3rd string) and then use the C pedal rocking it (raising the 4th string). If you want I can do a quick video of that run and post it on youtube. It is really just a neat lick and you can throw it in a lot of times to change it up!

I love bringing up my 1st string. You can really get some unique runs with it. Notice how I kind of rock it too a lot of times bringing it about half way raised
Thanks again!

Thanks Steven!
Sincere thanks to all of you who have watched my videos and gave comments...It really means a lot to me knowing that people are enjoying my playing. Every single comment and view means the world to me just because I know it is making someone happy. That's what music means to me and why it is so important to me. I am not in it for fame or to show off. I play because I love to play and God gave me the gift of music...
Thank you again for the kind words, the views, and the friendship!
more to come soon
-Chris Castle

Thank you all, again for your kind words. I am so glad that you are all enjoying my music and being so supportive. I have had many private messages asking about my camera that I am using and also about what effects I am using on my steel.
I am using the canon vixia rf52 camcorder for
these videos and am very pleased by how they are turning out.
For my steel, i am playing a derby, using a hilton VP, and playing through a Nashville 1000. I usually use a 112, but already had the 1000 in the house so I used it. I do not use any effects at all. It is just the lain set up and my hands.
if you have any other questions or request just let me know
-Chris
