Amazing how much info/instruction is in this 25+ year old book. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=354043 I guess this and Winnie's book were some of the original instruction material available for steel guitar,,,and it will still go a long way on getting new players started!!!
After seeing this post I found my 2 copies and looked through them,,,what a great contribution to the steel guitar community!!! I wonder how much if any influence or contribution Buddy was to this?

He has a bunch of books out, I started with his c6 lap steel books, the Method and Anthology. Tough /challenging for beginners, lots of near the nut slants tho not too many behind the bar pulls that i remember.
And then the same books with same songs for pedal steel, along with the Backup book. Then there's chord chart which i haven't quite gotten any comprehension of, and teh "Easiest country PSG " book which i hope i'm a little beyond.
