The Steel Guitar Forum

I appreciate everyone's suggestions. All of them, from black duct tape to the black vinyl wrap to the autobody filler, etc. When I make a move I will take a pic and post the result. Thanks.

.... besides a black sharpie!

https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1712/2436_Fessy_micachip_lores_1.jpg I opened the case to find this chip. No piece found floating around in the case. It must of happened packing up at the previous gig. I know I should pull the pad, cut a new piece and replace the whole thing but... maybe lat...

Received my two bars last night. First time with a powder coated bar. Definite tone change to a rounder, darker sound... And slick. I like it!

I just sent you a pm re. the red round and the purple sitar.

OK, I've got 11 of these remaining.

Thank you, Stu. Your connectors will go in the mail today.

I'm in a situation much like the posts above. Steel one song, 6 string the next. I'm always scrambling to get psg picks off, grab a conventional flatpick. Then reverse procedure to get back behind the steel in time for next tune. I could play the 6-string with the thumbpick I guess... it just feels ...

$20 for 3.

Ha! I didn't think about that! I guess I'd better choose my pants carefully! Maybe I'll just run it when the band is on break!

I just installed it last night, haven't played a gig with it yet. I will probably just pick a color and stay with it; no seizure-causing strobe! And yes, this won't work unless its a nighttime gig.

$12 worth of leds and the pedal steel has an under-apron lightshow!

where can i buy tuning nuts to fit a Fessenden? I think they are non-standard.

I have one, looking for a backup.I need the large version for 10 string.

Daniel, please put me in line behind Everett. PM sent.

It’s been Ten Years but I’m back! Just rejoined the forum. I’m now playing steel for BIg Time Grain Compay here in Kansas City. I’m searching for an affordable single 10 with Emmons copedant to be my main psg or as a backup. Currently, I have a Nashville LTD, so I’m considering a second on...

Sweetwater currently has the software only version of Guitar Rig 3 for $199.
Great review and comparison to GTR 3 in a recent Guitar Player mag.
I've messed with Guitar Rig 2 before and it was great.

Does Matt really need two pickups on a lapsteel? Seems like the extra magnets from a seldom used pickup under the strings just fight sustain. I have a 6 string Fouke with the Kent Armstrong humbucker and the coil tap. That and the great, wide tone knob on the Fouke give it a big tone palet. Perhaps,...

I've had EZ Drummer for a week. Worth every penny. Fast and fun to use. I am using Logic on a Mac. I also have the Beta Monkey and Drums on Demand loop CDs. They have their uses but EZ Drummer is much more productive. After about an hour using it I decided to get some of the expanson packs. Consider...

Gary calls this a student model because the aluminum has not been buffed out.
Otherwise, its like the pro model.

OK. I'm in. Shipping... It's gonna cost me!

David: I have a 18" sub. Fender brand. Trapazoid shaped box. 4 inch voice coil. 800watts. Has dual 1/4 inch and dual speakon connectors. Compact. One man can pick these up. That's why I bought em! btw. I already have one of these Alesis Studio 32 mixers. Great little mixer for studios. But, i h...
