Paul, What a wonderfull story. Danny Boy is also one of my favorite all time songs. And you are right on target about Buddy Emmons version on his black album. I had a request for it several years ago and after I played it the lady who requested it came and thanked me and she was crying because of so...

Last Sunday I had the pleasure of having both Jim Bob Sedgwick & Dave Knight coming to the American Legion Where I work on Sundays playing for a jam session.

I met John many years ago when he was teaching at Valley Arts. That was where I first saw a LDG Sho-Bud. I ended up buying my LDG from Eddie Walker, owner of the Sound Pad music store in Van Nuys. Eddie Walker is now in tbe Palmdale Area. We played together as part of Ralph Ragers and the Rhythm Ras...

I run 2 cables from my volume pedal 1 to each amp. if you volume pedal doesn't have 2 outs on it radio Shack has an adapter that plugs in to your 1 output and gives you two outputs I used that before I had a pedal with 2 outs and it worked good.

Brent, I have been playing my LDG for almost 30 years, I have bought other steels, but never let go of my LDG, the other steels sounded good but none were as sweet sounding as my LDG. I am now replacing bell cranks as several have broken with much use. I am considering putting a vertical lever on it...

I will try to make, sound like a good time.

I use a Geo L on my LDG Sho-Bud and it sounds great.

I just tried plugging my guitar
(GFI s-12) straight into my vegas 400
and the volume pedal and analog delay into the effects loop and it is the best that the GFI has ever sounded and the Vegas 400 too for that matter.

Thanks for the tip It is amazing that an old dog can still learn new tricks.

I have an Evans (250 watts of real clean sound) But I think it weighs more than 39 lbs tho not near as heavy as a fender twin. I play a LDG Sho-Bud and I am constantly getting compliments on the great sound I have. I also have a fender twin, peavy nashville 400 and a peavy Vegas 400. My Evans beats ...
