The Steel Guitar Forum

I had an occasion to order a couple of Bobbe’s instructional videotapes off the website. Tapes came and I watched – On one of the tapes, a couple of sync glitches popped up where the video lost sync for a second. I don’t know what happened, Could have been from an invasive package scanner or somethi...

Does anyone know of the whereabouts of one Mickey Wells - superb E9th player. Used to play for Larry Dean. Last I heard he was having difficulties with arthritis. I searched the forums for his name – without success.

I whipped around to see, prominently presented to stage right, was an REAL PSG being played by someone in a black lea...

The Mackie amps, 1400i and 2600i are also extremely good reproducers with ample headroom. The 2600 will slew at >60 V/us.

I'll be in Michigan / Detroit - Troy area for a few weeks. Does anyone know if there are any Steel playing goin' on around here? tns ss

I do professional recording and in studio, where the environment is more easily controlled, I will use AKG 414 and 3000 condenser mikes, with screens between them and the artist. Record the vocal in stereo, mid /side and overlay that on the main tracks. For a live situation, I setup two AKG 3000's a...

How can I order this CD?

Not without some type of timecode mechanism common to all units. Even DAT's w/o TC are a problem to sync. If each and every unit had the EXACT same crystal clock, then it would be a simple matter of dropping all the tracks from the mini's onto a multi-track machine and then sliding them back and for...

where is it?

If you'll use Bob's search engine: Search for "Ed Packard" in one or two of the sections, you will find a message there authored by Ed. Then you can click on that little envelope up above the text window and that will show you his email address. The last one I have for him is "edpacak...

There is a Crazy Horse Saloon in the Irvine Spectrum, recently moved from close to the 55 & Dyer. They do lots of country. And yes, the Swallows Inn in San Cap. There is also a place in the Chatsworth area called The Cowboy Palace that does country 24/7, and a new place in Calabassas called The...
