Often adored, frequently trodden upon, always penniless. http://steelguitarforum.com/eek.gif Thanx Jim, sorry to crow but it ' s just SO darned exciting. The thing just sings and has that growl when I dig in; love it, great instrument. As to the competitive aspect of these contests, you hit it on th...

SO , if I understand correctly, http://steelguitarforum.com/rolleyes.gif I SHOULD apostrophize (is that a word?) the word it's in the following phrase: I like it's tone. Yes? That's what I thought and these things are important to me and being right helps me sleep at nite. Oh BTW, did I mention tha...

Yes Charlie; and I gonna STOMP him...

Thanks Gary.
TTFN

that he does indeed browse into this discussion board from time to time. I was visiting w/him at the Rockygrass festival this afternoon and told him he could make a bunch of pickers really happy if he would choose to involve himself here. Just got home from the festival; Alison Krauss just finished;...

Gary, I'll have to listen from Windows; I don't have a .wmv plugin for Linux yet. They're ripping it up pretty good though; I don't even know if you could call them triplets, they're more like SIXlets! http://steelguitarforum.com/eek.gif The winner though, was a ringer; he took Winfield a couple yea...

Well, just returned home with a brand new Jerry Douglas model Dobro w/Fishman installed. My Lebeda is brighter on top and rounder on bottom so really, I prefer it's (does that apostrophe belong there?) tone to that of the Dobro; the Dobro is more muddy and midrangy. I installed a McIntyre feather in...

I entered the b@nj0 contest at Rockygrass this morning and didn't even place. I entered the dobro contest and made the finals! I mean, I wasn't even playing a real SONG; I was just NOODLING fer cryin' out loud. For the b@nj0 contest I worried and fretted and lost sleep and practiced and considered s...

<SMALL>I've always though of a steel guitar and bottleneck slide as being two different instruments.</SMALL> Well Alvin and Dave are both making statements that got a lot of disagreement on other threads (although I still agree w/both of them ON THESE POINTS). Alvin, there are those who argue that ...

Most of the blues guitar players I know suffer not only from an accent but more importantly a small vocabulary and a lack of fluency.

Actually Dave, I have played with some good slide players and when they play their leads and fills I just grab chord voices (usually moving but not glissing), sometimes in a really staccato way and it works fine. But then again, I make it a point to not clash with other instruments by striving for t...

Some of those motels-by-the-hour don't have good lobby supervision what with 'desk clerk' being behind bullet-proof glass and all.

Well, I guess that about wraps it up, eh?
Might as well close this one.

Yeah, that b0b's a real hellion.

I just play all their licks back to them on steel and then do a bunch of stuff they can't do.

Using a slide on my Tele is a problem cuz my action is SO low that I accidentally fret the strings more often than not.

<SMALL>evocation of a certain primitive mood</SMALL> PRIMITIVE MOOD?!? Have you lost your mind? http://steelguitarforum.com/biggrin.gif I said something akin to this in another thread and the villagers had their pitchforks and were coming up the hill in no time. In fact I could SWEAR I saw your fac...

No WAY! Hey TQ, long time no hear. I've been granted a reprieve by b0b but some of our illustrious membership are doing their best to get that revoked, I'm sure. http://steelguitarforum.com/biggrin.gif I don't know if 3 yrs would be too long a layoff or not. I've gone quite a few months at a time th...

I forgot that the legs and arms are segmented at the joints but still...

Is that model wearing earrings?

This only requires 2 dimensions of course.
But there are how many variables?
Not true gravity so a simple vector in free fall; balls of a few diff diameters; head, torso, arm2, leg2.

Seems rather rudimentary considering some things out there.

"Are you wealthy?"
Only in daughters!

Well, I only ask because Gruhn and others seem to think '58 Strats are worth 10K+.

With the amp?
Don't tell George Gruhn, eh?

THAT'S HIM!!!

Good player.

I played a tele through one a GC a few months ago. Probably should have named it the POS instead. http://steelguitarforum.com/biggrin.gif Well, it's not THAT bad but it's nothing more than 15 or 20 TINY little speakers stacked in a column (with an optional woofer). I think it might be good for certa...

I knew some guy in Kansas (wish I could remember his name) who did remarkably excellent things w/a Multichord.

Whatever you think of that site, I got to it from here.

This is a browser plugin that just takes you to random websites. You can configure your main interests though.

I'm finding all kinds of cool stuff this way.

<SMALL>(Most of my childhood was the 80's)</SMALL> Phew! Thank your lucky stars. It could've been MUCH worse than those you listed.<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Marty Pollard on 15 July 2005 at 10:05 AM.]</p></FONT>
