Thank you Ethan and Chris! I'm having a lot of fun with this, and hope to get time to record a few more this winter. There is something really satisfying in finding ways to blend the steel with the nylon string guitar, and the horns.

Thank you JD! The bass clarinet I play is basically the same as a typical Bb clarinet, just twice as big, and pitched an octave lower. The keys are set up different than a sax, but the technique is similar enough that a lot of sax players double on bass clarinet. John - I'm sure I would enjoy that! ...

Sounds like fun John! I just did a quick search on youtube, and found them playing a song called "I'm not cool" with Cedric on clarinet. Great bunch of musicians, and fun music. (I'm sure it's even better with steel though!)

I still have this guitar available. It has hardly been out of the case since I posted this ad a few years ago. I'd still let it go for the same price. I'll knock off $200 if you want to come pick it up in person. ($1,800 if you pick up, or $2,000 and I'll cover shipping/insurance within the continen...

Thank you guys. Tuning certainly became more challenging when I added the second horn.

I think the clone band look could be a real alternative to the bar band in Star Wars also. Maybe you could be in the background for Blade runner III. Ha! I like the idea! Jon Voth - I don't know if I'm ready to have my playing scrutinized by a real clarinetist yet! Hope she enjoys though! Thanks fo...

Thanks for the compliments gentlemen! I’m sure having fun with it. It was surprisingly easy to pick up the horn and start playing again after the 33 year break. I guess after studying steel guitar it just seems simple to play an instrument where you only have to play one note at a time!

Jazz with steel guitar and clarinets

About a year ago on a whim, I bought a bass clarinet, with no idea if I'd be able to play, or what direction I would go with it. (I played one for a couple of years in school over 30 years ago.) Then this summer, I bought a cheap soprano clarinet to bring on the road with me to practice while my ban...

Please close this ad for now, as I will be on the road for the next few months. I may decide to list this again in the fall.

Fulawka D-10 9x7 - Please Close

Comes with original Fulawka road case with wheels. $4500 and I will cover (domestic) shipping. $4300 if you come pick it up. (I am ab...

Pettingill 8 string lap steel

Pettingill 8 string Teardrop style Lap Steel. Tom's guitars are without a doubt some of the finest lap steels ever made. This is a real work of art, that plays and sounds just as good as it looks. I did gig with this guitar for a while, so it is not flawless. There are some very light surface scratc...

This Twin is still available. Come try it out before you buy it if you'd like. How about $800 if you come pick it up. I'm about 30 miles east of Dallas.

Hate to hear about this. I didn't know John really well, but we did have a few great conversations, chatting about music and steel guitar. He had a great sarcastic sense of humor as well! He always tried to convince me that I should be playing an old Push Pull.

Hi Bill! Yes I still have your old Vibrasonic, which is my favorite of the steel amps I own. I had to buy this twin recently when another amp died on me out on the road. It got me through the tour, but now I just don't need an extra one around.

Twin Reverb RI in DFW area

I need to sell this Fender Twin Reverb '65 reissue. Everything works perfectly, and it looks almost like new. Sounds great, clean and loud, like it should! Footswitch included. I'm looking to sell it locally in the Dallas/ Fort Worth area. $825 http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1504/4251_3_1.jpg...
