The Steel Guitar Forum

I really miss those folks. They weren't just about anal bell cranks, pull fingers and how to lube your steel with Wesson oil.
loosen up!

Getting boring around here lately! Read this topic from the beginning and I guarantee it will brighten your day

Steel Players About Steel Guitarists and their Music The Steel Guitar Forum to a great number of steel players is an adventure into Self-loathing. The urge to participate in a topic only to once again interject yourself into situations and times in which you are made to feel somehow inadequate, or d...

Are there any steel organizations or steel Jams in Missouri?

Watch out for him on the road to and from the gig. They don't call him Magoo for nothing!!

a few years back this would have been a fun topic with drive by bash-ers and some folks who would actually try the scale and then make fun off it but no, no no no we gotta stick with anal attentive!

You don’t have to kill the pest it will die a natural death! The experienced musician’s expectations are a Grande Canyon apart from the Mediocre or Newbie or wannabie attendees. A lot of leg humping, but not a lot of communication, tastefulness or good vibes. Then that haunting sense that you weren’...

No interest here regarding this.
Locally we have seen some interest mostly from guitar players who are interested in BIAB and TablEdit and having a Jam. No
steel players.

b0b I think you have put a dent in the plan but my position has always been to place 4 of the Blackstars side by side as a wall (unpluged) and hide 2 pluged Peavey NV 1000s.

Yes Jim, the jam will be edited to two eight min. vids and the Seminar will be in three eight min. vids
The Jam is scheduled to be held on the the Iceman large Tree House Deck after the Seminar held inside the Bar & Grill.
about two and a half hours all together or a longer Jam if folks want!

Bo loves the sound of the Blackstar ID Core 20 v2. Sorry I can't find the one I have of Bo playing steel with this amp but here is one of him playing guitar with just one of these amps not miced or direct box (just on it's own) with the C9 Organ pedal sound only (No guitar added) with very little vo...

right now Bo is playing 2 of those 20w amps cranked preamp on 9 and power amp on 10 along with a C9 organ pedal with just a little of the organ sound about 10/90 to a peavey 112 on 4 pre and 5 power. It covers a mid size hall well. He wants to drop the 112 and go with 4 Blackstars. The question to y...

Bo all these years has seen those rockers on stage with a wall of Marshall amps. So now Bo wants to go with a wall of 4 Blackstar ID Core 20 v3's. But my question is will 4 2ow solid state stereo bedroom amps going at the same time be load enough for a large hall? Or better yet how many of those amp...

I appreciate everyone's response here but geez give me a break! I'm not speaking here of how you use it, string it or wire it. I'm just s saying "why don't folks just come out and tell folks what pot they need to ask for to replace the one they have in their old PSG volume pedal?" Instead ...

volume pots for steel guitar is the most confusing thing I've ever seen or heard in my life. Most say 250K-500K but don't tell you what taper. Then you hear that all steel guitar volume pedals are audio taper and then you buy an audio taper volume pedal like the Ernie Ball Jr and it sounds like an o...

Sometimes you get burnt when you go online and do a quick study and come back and try to reply like an expert. Hey no matter, learning Steel is hard anyway so sometime hard lessons are the best lessons.

a lot late I know. But how did the surgery go Bill? hope you are doing fine and your sight is improved just at the same time all the masks are coming off all these ugly faces

I was thinking Ray Charles!

most often turns into a steel Jam. Some times there are more steel players than singers, Bo is part of the house band.
Come and play Steel. Bo will move over to guitar!
