The Steel Guitar Forum

I'm selling my steel guitar instructional materials. There's quite a bit of it - details are listed below. All are originals, no copies. Prices INCLUDE shipping in the US. I will send a percentage of proceeds to the authors per Forum practice. 1. SOLD Jeff Newman's Complete "Up from the Top&quo...

My prayers are with Teresa and the rest of Reece's family. I was very fortunate to have been able to study the steel guitar with Reece, and to have been his friend. I will miss him.....

Gary - I sent you an email, thanks. Danny, their website says they are temporarily shut down, and have only a few left over bars for sale. Hopefully Gary's is the right kind, if not I will try contacting tribotone directly rather than through their website. Appreciate your responses....I was real bu...

I dropped and nicked my favorite bar - the Tribotone. Since the website appears defunct(?), I'm hoping to find one for sale on the Forum. Either a "D" or a "K".
10 string bar, 3 5/16 inches, 7/8 inches diameter.

Thanks,
Barb Crowell

Nice! Thanks David!

Wayne - sorry I missed you. Next time I hope to be in town.

I'm going to lower the asking price on this guitar (see first post). It is such a beautiful instrument, and an awesome sound, but it needs a new owner, as I have not been playing it lately.......I've had some interest but nothing has panned out, so I'm going to lower the price....

I would like to sell my Sierra 12-string lapsteel. There were only two of these made. This has the wide string spacing so is great for slants. A very beautiful and unique guitar, with a lovely tone. Includes legs and a hard case. $1400 or best offer. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Ba...

I'll be there Larry. See you then!

I've been playing in a Tacoma WA area duo called " Boomer Madness " with myself on pedal steel, and Paul Wieneke on guitar, harmonica and vocals. We are doing mostly 60s and 70s rock covers (hence the name) :roll: . We are playing in Gig Harbor WA this Friday evening 2/3 at Forza's (coffee...

I play pedal steel with a contemporary Christian band in Tacoma WA. We play regularly at our (Lutheran) church but have been asked to play at other churches in the Puget Sound (Seattle) area. Mostly I do E9th type fills and intros, but some of the more up-tempo songs just call out (!) for a little C...

Sorry guys. I'm a steelwoman.

Thanks James and Dave for your suggestions. I obviously blew it when I picked the return flight, as I will be returning Monday and will miss a few great opportunities. But I appreciate your other suggestions on worthwhile things to do on the other days. I'm very excited for this trip!!! Thanks again...

I'm a steel player from Washington State, and I will be making my first trip ever to Nashville this week. I will be there from Wednesday July 8 - Monday July 14. I'd appreciate any information on what might be happening steel-guitar-wise. Thanks for your help!!

Sorry to hear about this happening anywhere, but especially close to home. Glad you got it back...

Here are some pictures I took at this show at Jazz Alley last night.

I've had my reservations for weeks now. Can't wait to hear them again!!!

Hi Sandra. I don't post here often but I've found the SGF to be a wonderful resource for learning. Keyboards are also my main instrument....or at least they used to be....until I started playing the pedal steel several years ago. It has been an absolute joy to learn and to play, and the steel guitar...

Hello James and the rest of you - I'm also a pedal steel player in the Seattle area (Browns Point, near Tacoma). I play steel with a band at my church every week. I don't post here on the SGF much but read it all the time. I'll be at the Spokane show, maybe I'll see some of you there, and if you loc...

I attended the concert on Saturday. It was great hearing such incredible musicians. If there is any chance that Centrum will do something similar again next year, there is no question that I would sign up for the whole week.

Well, I live near Tacoma WA, and have been playing steel for several years now. I haven't found a teacher around here and so have been teaching myself PSG. I've been a keyboard player for years, so obviously the musical background helps. I have not found a lot of places to hear steel guitar around h...

Hello Melinda,
I was surprised to see your address on your posting, and you can see why by mine. I haven't seen any other postings from Tacoma steel guitar players, and no women from anywhere nearby. Kind of a surprise this morning.
