The Steel Guitar Forum

Myron Smith so sorry to hear about this great man. What a loss & yet what a wonderful guy. So talented steel player and show man. There will never be another like this guy. He could do things with a steel guitar that has never been done and will never be done again by anyone. RIP my fellow Steel...

I had this Zum made for me in the mid 80s and have made my living with it for several years. It still plays and sounds great. Has some sighs of use but has been taken good care of. I am now retired and am selling some of my used gear. Has the Emmons set up with just about every pedal move you can ma...

I played steel for Judy back in the mid 70s. She was a wonderful person to work for. Yes it was a big band back then with players like Bobby Hicks, Kelly Jones was the band leader. Yeah we wore the Nudie suits, with Tony Lama Boots to match. Fun times for sure. I just played a little show a couple w...

As we all are so sad to hear this news. Bobby was not only a great player but a wonderful friend. I will always remember the great Jams we had together. RIP my friend & may the Lord be with Linda & family in this time of need.

SAD SAD SAD, What in the world makes all you guys think that what's coming out of your amp, is coming out in the house???? The only one that is happy with that sound is you. The sound man can still distroy your wonderful tone. As far as no control from the being direct, run though an EQ. A good effe...

Thanks for all the good advice,and thanks for the really kind words John.I wanted to bring this topic out, cause I have not seen one on the forum before. For me, I play several other instruments,the funny thing is none of the others ever bother me. I think the reason is I care the most about steel &...

I've been playing for over 30 yrs. & most of the time have no fear. Sometimes for no reason something comes over me that freeze's me up. I mean the right leg starts shaking & my hands go into a wild shaking. The more I try to control it, the worst it gets. I was just wondering if anyone else...

Are you talking about the Toni Ingrams that was booked by John Kelly.( husband of Judy Lynn ) I use to play steel for Judy in the mid 70's. Myron

Hey everybody! Thanks for all your pictures and responses. Still would like to see some other designs before I make a decision.

Hey guys, I have ordered a new Zumsteel and was wondering if any of you could email me a picture of yours. Bruce doesn't have any pictures of his split front designs. I own two older Zums and am purchasing a new one before I retire. Thanks for your pictures.

Myron
