The Steel Guitar Forum

Hello! Putting out feelers for a Pro 1. I'm located in Nashville, but willing to drive a few hours in any direction. In a perfect world I'd like to avoid shipping, but not totally against it. Let me know if you've got one you're looking to sell!

Thanks!

funny, I was going to recommend that he have a pair of LPB's on his board for the old Oliver. One on all the time for the dirty low-end he so craves, and another for the extra "push over the cliff" in the words of nigel tuffnel. We ended up getting the bassman, and it's made a world of dif...

nice guitar!

Hey folks, My guitar player's got just about the most unreliable rig you can imagine, and is pretty finnicky about how amps break up. The Oliver he's using sounds like a dream the 6 days out of the year it works, the rest of the time it's a real bugger. Shopping around today I tripped over a '74 Bas...

Hey y'all, I fell asleep and woke up in London, and now I'd like to find some vintage guitar shops, or if the stars are aligned somewhere that has steels? I've been googling, and found Denmark St. has tons of shops, but I hear it's the uber expensive tourist trap strip of shops. Is this right? Anywh...

crap, i wish i'd seen that...the one i'm looking at is going for 695.

hrmmm......

Hey everybody, Was routing around a guitar center and came upon a used '81 Fender 75 1X15 that was really intriguing. Tried the thing out with a few beautiful old guitars and it sounded fantastic, but not sure how it reacts to steel. Anybody have one? had one? Any advice or opinions greatly apprecia...

Now I've got something to start with...Thanks for the info!

Amen to that ^^^

Hey everybody, Just wondering if anybody has any suggestions for good reverb units...At the moment I'm not using any, though occasionally play through a friend's Holy Grail. Sounds ok, but makes the highs reaaaally piercing. Found a TRex "Room Mate" apparently tube-powered pedal that's int...

i HATED finger picks for the first little while i was playing, then decided i should just get used it. Forced myself to use them, and now I can't play without them. I feel naked without my picks! Never would I have guessed I would ever be a nerd about something like picks, but at the music store whi...

I just got some Jagwire nickels and they sound real purdy

saw a greg leisz mention early in the thread...his video playing "nuclear" with ryan adams was a kicker, and have had the pleasure of seeing him live with watkins family hour many many times...that and seeing cindy cashdollar live with ra and the cardinals a few years back...mr. jon grabof...

The ever-helpful Jon Graboff plays a JCH or two, and has a cool owner registry on his site...http://www.graboff.com/JCH_Registry.html

I watch that video of LG playing Farewell Party almost daily. Great stuff. And really enjoyed the story of the session! Thanks!

that's what im wary of...enough twins to sink a ship out here in LA, and about a dozen really nice ones

Lotsa Jims in this thread Hope I can make it out

hrmmmmm

I knew I had a good feeling about this one...Think I might try one out in the next few days. Thanks for all in the info!!

I was looking at the steel kings, but was a little turned off at the idea that it was solid state...still worth looking into though?

1X12, whoops

thanks for the info, and the link to that fender amp site. spent a couple hours perusing that one.

Yet another amp question...Has anyone tried this new amp? Seems like it would work quite well, but I'd like some steelers opinions before I start considering dropping another 1000 bucks

Thank you, and hope you're all well

Anybody have one? Know anything about them? Know what a good price is for one? I'm looking at 2 of them, one with the orig. Fender speaker, one with a replacement JBL. Amps look like 70's vintage, though I'm not 100% sure. Seems that way since they're silverfaced, and the ones claiming to be from th...
