Mick:

Did you know that you can lower the speed of Youtube videos by just clicking on the icon on the bottom right that looks like a wheel?

Very nice Doug. I enjoy all your videos. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Mike. I've downloaded the tabs.

Very nice Doug. I enjoy all your videos. Thanks for sharing.

For custom string sets, I use JPStrings.com (John Pearse). They can assemble a set of any gauge strings you desire.

Since you liked Cindy Cashdollar's dobro DVD, why not buy her lap steel DVD's? I have her 2 lap steel DVD's and enjoy them very much.

Norman's Rare Guitars in Tarzana, just north of LA, is showing 2 lap steels on their website. An Epiphone 1939 vintage and a Rickenbacker (year unknown).

The city of Tarzana was named after the fictional character Tarzan because Edgar Rice Burroughs owned a large ranch in the area.

Thanks for posting. These videos are great. I wish I had attended.

Hi Paul:

I have a Recording King lap steel. It is model # RG-32. It was my starter guitar. It sounds great at the lower frets. Even my guitar instructor agreed. But at the higher frets, it doesn't ring out as loud or as clear.

Hope that helps.

Very nice Peter. Your music reminds me of Ed Gerhard.

Very nice Doug. Great song. I have your two C6 songbooks and I love them.

Hi Bert:

I received the tabs and mp3 backing track. Much appreciated. Thanks for your generosity.

I can think of 2 steel guitar builders near you: Bill Asher at AsherGuitars.com, and Tom Burton at ChatsworthGuitars.com.

Good luck in your search.

Nice playing Terry. What tuning did you use?

Thank you John, for sending me the tabs. You're the best!

Luke

I love it, Jack. Thanks for sharing this.

Very cool Johan.

Art:

I might be able to help you, if I have the time. I live in San Jose currently but plan on moving out of the area in 2 weeks. Send me a PM and let me know how I can help.

Luke

That was enjoyable. Thanks for sharing.

Will there be any steel guitar companies exhibiting there? Anybody know?

Thanks Mike. I just ordered one of your CD's.

Mike: the songs sound great. Do the CD's come with tabs?

I was a newbie like you four months ago. I also agree with option 1. I made the mistake of wasting my money on a starter lap steel guitar, but quickly grew dissatisfied with it, and graduated to a custom-made Clinesmith.
