UNIQUE CUSTOM SHOP Peavey Nashville 112

I have for sale a very unique Nashville 112 Custom Shop done in Burgundy Ostrich. It is very clean, kept in a home studio and rarely traveled. It has never seen smoke if that's important to you. I'm told it has the Ken Fox mod on it but don't know how to confirm that. $500 and I will cover ground sh...

"Popping the clutch"

Have to share this one. My neighbor and I sat on the porch the other night and had a conversation about his 16 year old daughter learning to drive a car with a manual transmission. He said it pained him to feel the jerk and grind and hear her rev the engine unnecessarily and how she had burned a clu...

Tim, I'm only about 60 days ahead of you so I feel your apprehension about the journey ahead. I chuckled when I read about your picks because I did the same thing. I was so ready to get going and didn't even know how to put the darn picks on. I was so afraid of training improper muscle memory. I put...

I'll step up and help you out. Your question is actually about basic music theory. I dont know anything about the dobro, but Jim is right, your question isn't specific to the dobro, the same chords always go together no matter what instrument you're playing. It is much less work to study and underst...

Looking for formal PSG lessons in Oklahoma

I'm looking for formal pedal steel lessons in Oklahoma. At the very least, I'd like to connect with a pedal steel player in the area who is willing to show me the basics and let me ask some questions (how to sit, how to hold the bar, how to put the picks on my fingers, etc). I ordered my first PSG t...

Thanks everyone for the feedback. It's good to hear what's important from people who are farther along than I am. And to hear confirmation that theory will help me grasp things. Pete, that chord finder is cool. Thanks for sharing. Jack, you're spot on. That's actually my struggle right now. I just o...

Well, it was going the other way, but I recently purchased a Mullen SD10 RP through this forum. I have to admit when I saw the seller was in Alaska I thought to myself "man it's going to take forever to get here". He shipped it USPS on a Thursday afternoon and it was on my doorstep Monday ...

Wait, wait wait. Don't raise the price. I'll take it off of your hands @ the $500.. My wife is "redecorating" my studio and says it will go nice with the drapes she picked out. :D

Critique my PSG learning plan

I'm considering a slightly unusual beginner learning plan for myself and I'd like to hear feedback from both seasoned players and those who have played a short time. I think I want to separate my MUSIC lessons from my INSTRUMENT lessons.... with 2 separate teachers.  The MUSIC teacher being a music ...

Wow, what a cool collection of stories. I am surprised that the majority of you, like me, just heard it and had to get one.  My favorite is Bill Garret's "my band manager wrote some songs for It so somebody had to learn to play one" and Douglas Schuch's broken left index finger that healed...

Think back.... What inspired you to first play the PSG?

Hello everyone. Shaffer Smith from OKC here.  I'm new to the forum, and new to PSG.  (So new that my first PSG isn't even here yet). I've spent the last 6 months studying the instrument and making sure I'm really ready and committed to start this journey. This forum has been a wealth of knowledge an...
