The Steel Guitar Forum

I have to go along with Tommy Alexander. Since I discovered Hylands Leg Cramp pills I don't have a problem with cramps in my legs or hands.

Damir, The reason they stopped making these guitars is that Jerry Brightman passed away after getting the company going.

Stoney Stonecipher maybe?

When I first met Tim he was with Lonnie Mack at the Half Way House in Hamilton,O somewhere around 1966-67.

It looks and sounds like a single ped-a-bro with his baritone tuning.

Barbara, I arrived at Lackland 21Sept64. We had to have crossed paths sometime. Our barracks was across the road from the WAF barracks. I was in Flt. 1157. Fred

My mother was full Cherokee and my father was half Cherokee. My great grand mother and her father were on the Trail of Tears march. She escaped and ended up in Kentucky. I have all their documentation roll numbers.

I had my right knee replaced in 2007 recovered very quickly only had two PT visits that's all it took. The only problem I had was the RKR on an Emmons touched right in the place that hurt the most. That's when I met forum member Dick Sexton on line and he made me a paddle that fits exactly where the...

Ken, Do you have a mod kit for an older Session 400 or is it the same as the Session 400 Limited? Fred

Winston, Thats a good looking body on that guitar. Price is good. I've got a question PM sent. Fred

Thanks CE I have already done this just once. Didn't know about the cleaner though. Fred

Been using a Walker SS for several years now. I really wouldn't consider useing anything else. I've used just about every amp that's been made for steel and liked most of them and don't have anything against them but the Walker kinda stands out above all the rest for what I want in a steel amp. I us...

My kind of music. John what you played is so tasteful. I would love to play with a show like that.

Terry, I've had carpal tunnel surgery on both hands about five months apart and didn't miss one single night of playing. Don't try to lift anything heavier than the bar though. Fred

When these things came out, the Danelectro Co. gave Barry "Byrd" Burton and myself one of these things. I kept mine for about two weeks and gave it back. All the people I knew that were using them got them for free. I had no use for it, but I wish I had kept it now. Fred

Carl, I would like another Big tuning wrench. I have already sent you a pay pal. Thanks, Fred

Jerry, Call Steve Lewis over in Richmond He can fix it for you he's reasonable and prompt. His number is 859-623-4406. Fred

I am looking for a decal sticker for a Mars volume pedal. Anyone out there know where to find one of these? I've had this pedal for at least twenty years, knew the fellow that bought it new it's thirty plus years old still has the same pot. I would really like to find a new sticker for it I think it...

Gerald, I just added the 7 string pull and it works fine on my LeGrande II. I did remove the half stop before so that I could use the 9 string as my half stop. Just arrange the pull in the proper hole in the changer and bell crank so it will pull an exact half tone and not mess with your 2nd and 9th...

Carl, I got my new Big Tuning Wrench. I really like it. Thanks for shipping it so quick. Fred

Carl, My computer has been down for a while. Send me the pay info and I'll send the money by pay pal. If you have emailed me already I didn't get it. Fred

Carl, Put me down for one of the new ones. I've bought five of the old ones for friends that liked them. They really are great for people with hand problems. Let me know how you want to be paid, Fred

Gary, I would contact Jerry Roller about the fourth pedal parts. He's a forum member and a great guy to deal with.

You shouldn't let an instrument finished in Nitro stay in contact with any kind of plastic for a very long time. Leather or rubber seems to be okay.Urethane finishes don't seem to be affected by any thing other than a grinder. Plastics usually contain acrylics and it reacts to nitro. I ruined a coup...

Jerry,Not meaning to change the subject but did you know that Byrd died a couple of years ago? He was an old friend of mine from back in the sixties when he worked at Hewgleys (not sure about the spelling)Music Store in Knoxville. Had a long bout with cancer.
