Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for making this available.

Richard- thank you.

I have changed the gauge to a heavier string on the 3rd, check.

Pedal travel- that is adjusted where the pedal connects to the rod?

I am raising them both to A (I tuned 3&6 down to G for an Em tuning)

Could anybody help me with how to adjust the B pedal so that it raises strings 3 & 6 a whole step instead of a half step?

I am a youthful convert… Nobody preached to me the good news of pedal steel; I simply found that the emotional gravity of a lot of songs I listened to was found in the voice of this instrument. It says things that a 6 string guitar can not say. And it possesses that singular quality that keeps one...

As far as pedals - The Line 6 Rotomachine has two wooden Leslie and a 16 model and works very well - you don't get the same spaciousness as real one, but it sounds more like a recorded version. The Boss RT20 is large and more "wooden-model" like, but has a ton of adjustments (both can be ...

Thanks! I found the intro to "Albuquerque" and an early attempt at "Deep Forbidden Lake" both of which were on my list. Also some great notes on "Out on the Weekend". I really appreciate it.

I recently got into playing pedal steel and have started work on a project to tab out Ben Keith's steel parts on Harvest and then a few songs from Tonights the Night. There have been a lot of great posts on the forum about Big Ben, his style and equipment. The book "Harvest Off the Record"...

There are lots of original and reissue 50's strat necks on ebay. Just search for "strat neck" and sort by highest price first, then take your pick. Also, you might consider warmoth.com custom shop for strat reissue parts.

Could use a pedal steel player for recording and live shows in the Akron-Canton-Kent area of Ohio. Music akin to "Manassas", "Harvest", "James Taylor- Greatest Hits". Good paying opportunity, can send wav files from Cubase for long distance relationship but live work ne...
