The Steel Guitar Forum

Anybody here currently use a reentrant tuning? I do. Reece Anderson tuning on lap, haven't played it in a long time, so my memory might fail me. I think I lost the lowest string in favor of a b7. And on 8-string acoustic low to high: g-b-d-e-g-b-d-a. The basic idea is to accommodate a dobro player ...

Just saw it. Congratulations!

congratulations!

Not to take away from anybody's opinion: I found Joe Wright's videos tremendously informative + helpful.

The bass line is pretty cool!

It's been quite sometime that I posted ANYTHING here, but I suspect some overlap between all the sites anyway. Here goes: https://www.resohangout.com/myhangout/videos.asp?m=d&catID=&id=12183 I bought this lovely 8-string guitar recently built by Mr. Jack Stepick. The tuning is a bastard chil...

is what straight bar chord positions are available to use when playing a Dominant 7 chord

the short answer: none.

the slightly longer answer: tunes like "Walkin' After Midnight" illustrate nicely how to suggest dom7 chords.

Also practically every single Hank Williams recording.

Enjoy!

Maybe you'll be surprised to hear that LA offers actually not that many choices for these kind of instruments. You might want to check out "McCabe's" in Santa Monica. Maybe "The Fretted Frog" in Pasadena. If you have the time: go to Oceanside to see Jim Palenscar's "Steel Gu...

1st inversion - root as the melody note
2nd inversion - 3/b3 as melody note

This is just plain wrong.

C, G, Bb, E is a voicing and not an inversion as the root is still in the bass. Yes, this is how it is typically called. The above is a C7 chord in root position. Nothing inverted there. e.g. on guitar: B(6th string) - G (4th) - D(3rd) - G(2nd) is a first inversion G triad. or: Bb (6th string) - G(...

just to clarify the terminology: - an inversion is a chord where the bass note is NOT the root of the chord. e.g.: for C7: C - E - G - Bb first inversion: C (the root) over E (third in bass) second inversion C over G (fifth in bass) third inversion C over Bb (seventh in bass) - normally inversions a...

Dobro, melodic style.

...deeply indebted to track 8 of 'No Peddlers Allowed'.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4b5twrfyAj8 I can't believe I'm even replying to that kind of silliness. To be trivializing every other musician's effort, just like that, feels a bit, uhm, self-indulgent. [...] there is a multitude of worlds out there with differing definitions of complexity. Still...

The fact that the pedal steel guitar is by far the most difficult instrument to play of all

This is not 100% serious, is it?

Gentlemen -

Thank you very much!

I just listened to 'Pickaway' and noticed there are no updates on his site.

Stefan -

This was a joke!

I get it what you're saying: I much more like playing bluegrass than listening to it.

Still, I apologize if I hurt any feelings. Religious or otherwise!!!

Not a fan of Ickes or JD. Find it always sounds the same.

Stefan -

you're regularly just killing me.
ROFLMAO.
