The Steel Guitar Forum

Thanks guys! Having a great time so far. Wonderful folks and they really love the steel guitar. Kevin, I’ve been living a bit dangerously the last couple years and flying with a D-8 perm I got from Rich Sullivan (thanks again, Rich!). The body in a rolling keyboard case is just under 50# and the leg...

Really excited to be touring around Ireland this week with a couple of great singers playing some good old traditional country music as well as great original material. The band also features the amazing Joel Savoy on fiddle and legendary bass man Mike Bub. Apologies for the short notice! https://bb...

Thank you for everything, b0b. You done good!! Wishing you all the best.

I’ll take it!

Wow, a Lynch thread!! Here’s my D-8, had it for many years. Pretty much a crude perm copy. Same keyhead detail as the one Liam posted.

Hi Joe, if the buzz sounds a little like a sitar check to see whether the string is dipping down after it goes over the peak of the bridge. If so, a new string will cure it. This can also be an issue on some standard guitars, especially Teles with barrel saddles.

I’ve had the pleasure of playing lead guitar alongside many phenomenal steel players and Todd is right at the top of that list. When I was filling in for the great Dan Lowinger in the Barn Door Slammers it was like being paid for getting a two or three hour master class in classic Western Swing st...

Wow. That is just wonderful.

Nicely done, Rich! Looking forward to hearing more.

That is just so nice on every level. Makes me wanna dust off the old tricone and head for the woodshed. Thanks, you two!

Nice work, Jesse! Cool tune and great tone! I need a copy.

I regret to say I’m not going to make it to Dallas after all. More importantly that means this beautiful frypan won’t be there either. Apologies to those who wanted to check it out. It really is an outstanding instrument. Stephen, I appreciate your offer to play. Hopefully some other time. Have ...

Thanks again for all the kind words, everyone. And extra special thanks to those who have ordered or downloaded!

Mr. Burke and Mr. Tkac- yours are on the way. Enjoy!

Mr. Goldmark- I’ve been a fan of yours for many years. So glad you dig it!

Thanks, guys! Appreciate you taking the time to check it out. John, you asked about the gear. I used three different guitars: Sho-Bud Permanent, Bigsby T-8, Rickenbacker DW-16, and two amps: Deluxe Reverb and a tweed Pro clone. As for the recording process, I can tell you very little. Matt Buetow (s...

As a perennial sideman I’m not quite sure what got into me, but I’ve gone and recorded an instrumental steel album. Twelve tracks, nine originals, all featuring the stellar lead guitar work of Ian Miller. Stylistically it’s pretty old school, both straight and pedal steel, lots of twin guitar ...

Thanks, Gary. I have a nut on the way, courtesy of Russ Tkac. What a nice guy! And I actually have a Sentell pickup left over from another project that will work for now, although I would still love to find an original.

Looking for a solid nut (same one used on Stringmasters) and a early style pickup (Jazzmaster style) to complete a 400 project. Thanks!

Bump for a great product made by great folks.

Todd Clinesmith also makes top quality polymer bars at very reasonable prices.

Wow, what a nice Christmas present.

Thanks, Mike! And thank you, Stephen, for the heads up.

Bill, sounds like a good time to use those frequent flyer miles! Sorry about the pics, I’ll send you some- don’t want to contaminate this thread.
