I had never really cared about the difference between ET and JI tuning of a steel guitar (although I TRY to tune JI on my steel) until I saw and heard John Hughey and Weldon Myrick playing side-by-side at a show in Dothan Alabama. Both John and Weldon knocked my socks off, but to me it was very evid...

Try going to the setup.exe file on the disk and right-click, then choose "run as administrator". That may possibly work.

First of all, "me no session player". However, years ago I got a call for a local artist-to-be who wanted a steel on a demo. I went in, setup steel, tuned up, got amp adjusted, etc. I listened to the song once through the monitors as the producer pointed out where, what, and how much steel...

check this out before deciding

Specs look good on this unit. Kinda pricey, but if it sounds as good on steel as it does on their sound clips I would surely consider it.

Something has been overlooked here.......

I can't help but believe there is more to Buddy Emmons'fantastic career than his own self-determination and God-given ability to play the pedal steel guitar. And that was his wonderful and loving wife Peggy. I met her on just one occasion, but let me tell you, I know she played a tremendous part in ...

I recently did the Brad Sarno component upgrade to a 1975 Session 400 with a JBL D130 15" speaker. I don't believe I've heard a better sounding steel amp.You can read about the upgrade at the link below if interested.

Has anyone tried the Maxon AD999 Pro? Expensive, but the specs are quite good. I would like to try one, but I can't justify buying one without knowing more about it.

If the cables check ok, but problem is still there, look inside the reverb pan at the back side of the connectors where the reverb coil wires attach. These wires are tiny, and sometimes break where they are soldered to the connectors.
