The Steel Guitar Forum

That was a day I'll never forget. Lloyd not only talked in depth with me about steel guitar but he wanted to know about my playing and made .
me feel like a steel player. It was truly the best experience I've ever had. Thank you Lloyd for spending 30 minutes with a struggling steel player

Out of all the famous steel players I had the honor to have a picture with this one means more to me than all man's riches or gold. Lloyd and I were cutting up when the camera snapped but none the less I got fulfill a life long achievement of meeting Lloyd. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix220...

b0b was truly a blessing to this community. Everyone was blessed by his words of wisdom in one way or the other. b0b was really intelligent when it came to other tunings other than E9 and C6. Not having b0b present here on the forum is like not having the A and B pedal on a steel guitar. Just doesn'...

That would be my pick.

Erv I'm aware of it and I'm a fan of the NV 400 however when I say I'm on a limited budget $200 is not in the budget. I'm on disability with very minimal income

Yup, some late 70s to mid-80s Peaveys like the Pacer, Backstage/Backstage-Plus, and the Studio Pro/Pro-40/Pro-50. Or if you can find one reasonable, Bandit/Bandit-65 or the Special/Special-130. The Specials have the added attraction of a sweepable mid control. All are, to my tastes, good for guitar...

Thanks for the info David. She has a great tone as well

Whaddaya mean "was". Did Buzz Evans pass? I hadn't heard that, it's not in Gone Home as far as I can see. dude buzz has been passed on for a few years now I don't believe this is true. I get posts from his daughter Debbie every so often, and Buzz is still with us. Herb my apologies sir fo...

Look for an old Peavey Pacer. They built a gazillion of 'em, and sometimes you can pick 'em up for a pittance. Still not cheap enough? Look for an entry level small student bass amp, and go without reverb until you can find a cheap pedal. Pedal steel is not for the faint of heart, or the light of w...

Thanks for the input as bad as I hate to admit it my budget is pretty tight. As much as I want another NV 400 my budget at the moment won't even allow me that. Bear in mind I'm not playing any gigs I'm playing at home to work my chops back that I had so I'm just looking for something inexpensive tha...

Hello all I am needing some wisdom as I am getting back into steel playing. I have already acured the most expensive piece of equipment which is the steel. I'm on a limited budget and what I am wanting costs more than my budget will allow. What is another inexpensive Amp I can use to get back to pla...

I just stumbled across this thread and this buffoon Scott Groves states in his YouTube video about pedal steel guitar "there is no reason why in one week you can go on stage and sound like a professinal". I'm thinking if an actual beginner purchases this garbage video and goes to a gig thi...

Thanks gentlemen for the kind words. This guitar currently is set up extended E9 with 3 floor pedal and 4 knee levers with 12 strings. I am going to add 1 floor pedal and 1 vertical knee lever and use Zane Becks 1977 setup. I have talked extensively with Dan Burnham and after our conversations we ha...

Man this guitar is just begging for someone to Ralph Mooney chops on this time capsule. Great looking guitar brother. Mike

Hugh have you fixed the issue? If not Barry said call him and he will walk through it.

What a time capsule Damir gorgeous guitar. I think im channeling my inner Bobbe Seymour for blondes .

Does any member here have 3 jeff newman finger picks? I'm looking for some thanks Mike

Pm sent Hugh

Greg beautiful steel my friend. Is your D13 different from Johnny Cox's as far as pedals and knee levers are concerned? Just wondering and exploring the different and unique setups of players. Thanks Mike

Hey Neil if you go the links tab here on the forum and scroll down to copedents you'll find a plethora of players setups including the C6th. I hope this helps brother. Mike

Mike, It’s a great tuning. There are several of us in Arkansas that play his tuning so let me know if you have any questions ! Larry if possible do you or can you tab out some simple grips and scales? I am a former D-10 player coming into this tuning and I'm a newbie to this tuning. I will be using...
