The Steel Guitar Forum

Are you going from your pedal to the effects loop in and the from the effects loop out to the input of your volume pedal?
You only stated that you were plugging IN to the effects loop.

There were several different fiddlers at the convention.
Do you know what year you are referring to?

We had:
Hoot Hester
Rob Hajacos
Tommy Williams
Dean Baxter
Janee' Keener
and a few others.

If you know the year, I can look it up (hopefully).

It used to be said that a picture was worth a thousand words. In this case, a phone call or email would have saved a thousand words. hehe I am still one that believes in actual human contact, especially if you have a problem. Computers and social media are great, but one wrong key pressed can wreak ...

I would surely have checked with Mullen before posting this on a public forum. Some people will only read your post and go no further and it looks like you are flaming Mullen. IMHO

Check Bailey's Music Barn on Facebook.
It's a country music show with a couple of Steelers.

Ken is on the forum regularly when he is not traveling.
Send him a PM

Larry Moore is pretty good with the LeGrande.

My sentiments exactly Roger.
Why change when you have the best.

A big Happy Birthday to my long time friend, Paul SR.

I have so much enjoyed our many conversations at either the ISGC or the Nashville steel guitar shows.

I hope you have a great day and get to do something special.

Love ya pal,

Bill

Thanks. How about posting a little video of you playing this lick.

Frank is truly one of the most under rated players.
He plays better than I could ever dream of playing.

Plus, he is one of the GOOD guys.

Just wish he had learned how to build a decent steel. hehe

Roger,
For all my VHS to Digital transfers, I used Cyberlink Power Director.
I still have the program on my computer.
If you want to make a copy on a thumb drive and send it to me, I will be happy to increase the volume and send it back to you, no charge.

That is the same volume hot that I sell.

When I was selling strings, I made up custom sets.

I am now sending all my customers to Malcolm Kirby. He follows the same business model I used.

Give him a try.

Travis, drop me an email and I can fix you up with a new pot for your volume pedal.
I also include a new string with every pot.

Hi Brian,
I have some video from Knoxville of Jeff that I would be happy to contribute.

Noah, On the 1st string, full tone raise. If you have the tuning nut turned clockwise where it almost hits the changer and it is still not up to pitch, then you must get more travel. Be sure the pull rod (with the steel upside down) is in the hole closest to you (top) on the bellcrank and in the bot...

Jake,
I have the volume pots in stock and I include a new string with every pot.

I am so sorry to hear this. Bob had his booth behind the sound booth at the ISGC for as long as I can remember. He would come and sit in the sound booth and just chat. He presented me with the PSGA Appreciation Award in 2007 for my work promoting the steel guitar and for my playing ability. We will ...

I don't think so, but there are some plans in the works.

Yep, sadly, almost every company moved offshore in order to compete.
Blame your government, not the companies. IMHO

Hope companies will be moving home soon.

To the above poster. Mike Brown has not been with TV for several years. As far as repairs here is the statement from the man himself yesterday "As far as the non warranty repairs, that's not true but we are down to just three techs and are encouraging people to use service centers out in the fi...

Nice Dale.
You never cease to amaze and impress me.

If this is true, it is news to me.

I will find out for sure and post. I will call the man himself.
