thanks bOb, so far can't load the THR editor up on my home computers or my work version 7 64 bit computer.
We'll figure something out.

They are asking for a Soft-eLicenser number.
Where is that located?

Ron,
Which outlet on Oahu had them?
Having a problem with the software. They are asking for a licensing number and can't seem to locate it.
where do you find this item?
thanks,

Hey Ron, Sorry have to put the THR10 to sleep before I can answer any questions.... I got it at the Island General store better know as Amazon.com. As you know it is hard to find anything locally and if you do find quality musical stuff you have to leave your first born son as a down payment or take...

Just got mine last night and didn't get a lot sleep as I was extremely pleased with this little bugger. For electric guitar I was fronting the THR10 with a blackbox, Keely compressor and a Blackstone overdrive. As b0b stated not a complete tube tone but a unique clean,compressed and slightly overdri...

Just received my THR10 yesterday afternoon and am a convert. Can play it clean or dirty, electric or acoustic. Great modeling amp and I haven't even tried the software yet. Good for Steel, Pedal steel, Fiddle, mandolyn, guitar- acoustic or electric and it isn't bad for harmonica either. This is the ...

I'm with William on this one...

No sloping foreheads or Hook noses either.

Now we can both do the 12 string shuffle in 3/4 time.
That is a real beauty.

Ray You might want to think in terms of using the number system when working with your minors in any key. NO matter what your root chord is you will find that the 6 minor is usually the minor most songs will include - ie-Key of G the 6th is an E minor. Key of C the 6th is an A minor. The 3 minor can...

Don't know what the stock pickups are but my SD-10 has a single coil that has a nice tone but after I hooked up the black box it developed a strong single coil hum. No problem with my Fessy with a Lawrence HB pickup hooked up through the black box.

What a great looking instrument. I'm always envious of machinest's knowledge and skill. Your first steel guitar and you know it backwards and forwards. Now you can set up your own steel repair shop.

Lane, if I remember my theory correctly using 9 is correct. You use the 1, 3, 5, 7 when making up Major chords the first time through the scale. The second becomes a nine as you are adding it,usually, to the dominate 7th chord to get that sweet beautiful 9th tone. The 4th becomes a 11th chord change...

Rick Johnson uses the water based contact cement but also uses a hair dryer to heat it up and get better adhesion. It seems to give him more time to work the glue. Rick has a DVD out that explains all you need to know and shows you a bunch of tricks/shortcuts.

Thanks Lane, Great stuff for us freshman PSGers Got to learn to walk, or crawl, before you run. E9 players can learn the E scale on the 7th fret using A, B and F and begin to learn Lane's Lesson. Yep, you can do it all on, or almost all of the melody on the 7th fret. Us 12 stringers can get two octi...

I'm old enough to remember watching him with the Original New Riders of the Purple Sage. He'd do a great set with them and then return to the stage with Bob and friends and do an acoustic set. Then the Dead would come on and blow you away for four more hours. During that era they sure loved to play ...

Aloha Lana, I received a new Fessy U-12 on 3/6/12 but not with the same pup. Mine is a 12 string HB Wallace. A couple of suggestions: Switch guitar/amp and volume pedal chords. Run the guitar direct to the amp to make sure it isn't a volume pedal problem or chord. Make sure the solder connections on...

It is easy to tell that you love building these gems.
The precision and clean lines speak of your pride and joy of building Pedal steels.

John, It's like you kinda sorta almost know from skating by all those years on guitar. After listening to Mark explain it the light bulb finally lights up and your brain begins to really absorb all of that information. The harmonic scale actually makes sense now and the finding the easy 7th's leadin...

Good advice, thanks Henry.

Chuck, printed out the information on the two older threads you provided.
There isn't any SteppingstoneMusic any longer listed on the internet. Anyone know how to contact Rick Kornacker?

Thanks guys.
I have relatives in town and spent all day at the beach surfing and snorkeling. It's tough work but you have to show them a good time...
Anyway, practiced for 90 minutes this morning and am plain tuckered out but will try your suggestions in the morning.

I'm still new and learning all kinds of fantastic pedal knee combo tones. Counter point tones have really caught my attention. When you release the B pedal and then the D knee lever the combo of one string/4 or 8, going up a half tone and the other/3,6 or 10, on my 12 string, going down in tone is b...

I've talked to different shippers who tell me Fedex is hard to recover a damage claim from. Anyone had any claim recovery experience with different shippers. I've built and shipped many acoustic and electric guitars using USPS without any problems. Always insure and I like the photo idea. Great advi...

Good Stuff, now to find time to add something else to the practice schedule.Gonna have to quit the day job...
