Recorded in 1999. I was experimenting with an F Diatonic tuning on pedal steel. My good friend Fred Campbell played the bass on this simply Bach tune, "Minuet in G Major".

| Very well done sir. The tone is very rich. Were you using a tube amp or recording direct? |

Very nice, bOb. I think I heard it first in the Pop charts from Alma Cogan sung in German as So fรยคngt es immer an, and in English as a Lover's Concerto done by the Toys.

Very tasteful, and an interesting tuning.
The question I always ask is "Would Bach have liked it?" and I think he would.

Thank you for posting. Simple but elegant tune. Any chance you have a tab of this work that you would sell?
Best always,

It's not in a common tuning, Archie. I played it from the piano sheet music which is widely available. Fred Campbell's bass part was the left hand of the piano part.
I think it would be challenging but not impossible on E9th. On my F diatonic, it wasn't hard at all.

Hey b0b, if you were going to adapt your F diatonic to an eight string, which strings would you keep? Iโd like to put this on my fender 400 and take a shot at some simple classical music  |
You wouldn't have much of a range with 8 strings. I got it down to 10:

Even if you just took the top 8 stings, you'd still need 4 knee levers to get the full benefit of easy note reading.
