this solo's been bugging me for years..
Tune: Dwight Yoakam's "Heart That You Own" I love this song and the very beautiful steel solo! (IMO). My "predicament" is with the 3rd measure of the solo (not counting solo pick-up notes). The song is in E, but the move in the 3rd measure (3rd beat), a typical AB pedal move we'v...

This is the most beautiful Derby I've ever seen, literally. (It also has IMO the best Derby logo, out of at least 4 I am aware of!). If I didn't already own one I'd snatch this up. Not just because it's gorgeous but because Derby's are great steels, they can keep up with anything out there. I'm surp...

Suggestions for improving picking technique
After about a 5 year hiatus, I'm back into playing steel. I started in 1998 or so. One thing I've always struggled with is playing fast licks cleanly. To this day I'll still miss strings or just graze them, even practicing a lick or run over and over. I'm a musician from way back and I know all abou...

Just checked that link - I forgot about those early Derby's with the hat and cane screwed on logo! - I guess those were the first (someone more in the know could comment). It's funny, I like the location of my knees on the Derby more than other steels I've played, probably just how I sit at it more ...

Paul I'm not sure of the year Charlie Stepp starting building Derbys. I've owned and played a number of steels over the years (well, decades)...Emmons P/P, ZB Custom, Sho-Bud, Carter. The Derby D10 (the only guitar I still currently own) is the most reliable and trouble-free of them all. While I can...

Super Clean Sho-Bud LDG
I'm regrettably selling this beauty to make room for another instrument in my stable. I purchased it here about 5 years ago from another forum member and it has been used sparingly and never gigged. It's a head-turner and sounds really sweet too. Here is what I know. Probably around a '78 (however p...

ZB Custom D-10 8/5 - beautiful
This breaks my heart, but a new recording project I am involved with (which I need $$ for) forces me to sell my lovely ZB. It’s a D-10 8+5. I have owned the guitar since 2003 (having bought it from a fellow forumite here). It is a Billy Knowles rebuild. The serial number is 0330 which puts it somewh...
