The Steel Guitar Forum

I just got my new Justice Pro-Lite and am thoroughly enjoying it. Ron Anderson did an amazing job on this machine. It fits like a glove and the response is "snappy" and smooth. The 705 pickup has power and tone that's, honestly, overwhelming at first... like a sportscar. It has tons of sus...

Best to you sir!

I recently was asked to play steel in a show the featured two songs by the Ventures.... Stranger on the Shore and Blue Star Both change keys..I did not include those in the tab as you simply shift positions :) Enjoy! https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2203/20694_Blues_Star_e9_1.jpg https://bb.st...

Okay...
as a Boss Katana user I am curious how people feel about using
a bass amp for PSG?
The larger of the Katana Bass amps is a 210 closed back with compressor and effects...

thoughts?

Okay.. here's this for your review..

Pretty sure it's Bruce Bouton


This is the first TAB I've submitted to this forum.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

So.. my Carter S 10 was built 1" under standard. I'm not quite that size so... I needed to raise it. (please see the pics) I'm wondering where I could get the spring loaded clips that hold the bottom of the pulls to the ball joint. Any ideas? https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-03/20694...

I've been playing pedal steel for roughly 8 months and have worked with 3 different instructors... each instructor says I need to change from my preferred bar, a Schubb SH 1, to a standard PSG bar (which I hate)! After being told the tone would be BETTER with the bar I did a side by side spectrum an...

Love my Katana...it's a ringer.

10- string tuning machines and pans for Fender steel..

So.. a few years back Kluesen announced at NAMM they would be manufacturing replacement 8- and 10- string tuning machines and pans for Fender steel...

with the passing of time.. umm.. NOTHING.

Has anyone here found or attempted to retrofit or re-engineer the tuners on a Fender or Fender Sho Bud?

I wouldn't bet I can say anything that hasn't been said already, in all the threads about this. But what I do find interesting is the historical aspect of the picks. Style evolves out of necessity... In my understanding, it was primarily about volume in the pre-electric ( and pre- resonator ) era. ...

Foundationally I feel like I can get way better results
without finger picks...
I absolutely hate them.

Thoughts?

Well...
I'm using a Boss FV 500H pedal and it has huge linearity issues...
nomatter how much I adjust it..it is either on or off..

what is a good solid PSG volume pedal that won't break the bank?

Yeah.. they are a little difficult to find..

Okay it happened... I stripped a tuning nut.

I don't have a means of determining what diameter the pull rod is so..

what would be the likely replacement nut?

So..
I'm an old band director and I know a few things about
practice BUT.. new to the steel..

What methods or madness do you all use to practice?
