The Steel Guitar Forum

I was going thru u-tube this morning and happened to run across Bill Sutton picking his Emmons steel. He has several entries on there. On this one he was doing I Wont Mention It Again. Man The Lord has really Blessed him. He has such a nice touch and tone on all the songs he has on u-tube. If you al...

Bob that was a great piece of gospel music as is all your u-tube tunes. If Buddy Bryant was still
around he would be one proud guy to have been your friend. We used to play together in his barn and he would always mention you. He was my good friend as well.

Dom Thanks for the tunes that you've put on U-Tube I have enjoyed all of them, Please don't stop. I wish I had known you when I lived in Coos Bay. There was only one steel player when I lived there and he was way above me, and I never got interested in lap steel till I moved down to Waco. :( Keeep u...

Zane I see you have several backing tracks for us less informed pickers. I was listening to some of your tracks(songs) and wondered if you have Blue Eyes Crying and Amazing Grace. I am really impressed by your versions of them as well as nearly all of your other songs you do. How do I get them. Keep...

Hi guys--Ive used Biab for a long time I like it pretty well. Ive used real players a lot as well but im satisfied with BIAB and Ive never had a drunner get drunk and fall off the bandstand once

Man I like them. they have a neat sound--also
they aint too hard to look at either. That aint because im a dirty old man either. I did notice the one playing bass needs to shave off her beard

That was a neat song like Bill said. Reminded me of the area of the High Plains of Texas where I was raised. The only thing missing was a terrible dust storm. Keep up the good work

Thanks Again

Andy and Webb. You guys are so positive.Your way is the way I learned the E-9 pedals. By listening to Ray Price, Walon and many others I finally got passable grades on that tuning. I will give it some more thought and practice. Ive always played by ear and sang the same way so will keep on trying. T...

:whoa: Ive been trying to figure out how to play the 8 string lap steel. Ive tryed Dougs system and Troys as well. Both are good Im sure but I am having trouble with the tunings Is there an E tuning like a guitar tuning that I could get into. I play regular guitar and I also play E-9th pedal steel i...

Alan that blue guitar is absolutly great. What kind of dye or stain did you use. Inquiring minds need to know. Thanks in advance.

Hi Troy these two lessons were great for a beginner like me. Ive had a terrible time learning anything about C6th Im just kinda in the dark.
Thanks again
Norm McDaniel

Dom I have followed most of your postings and do enjoy them. I like your 12 string guitars. I have never built one just 10 string and 6. Also 8 stringers. My question to you why do we builders always seem to have a jumbled mess for a workbench. Mine looks like yours all the time :whoa: :lol: Keep on...

Martin great tune great picking and beautiful guitar. Keep it up
