Mike Sweeney and The Bootcamp

Hello everyone, I just finished my first session of steel guitar bootcamp with Mike, wow. I encourage anyone who wishes to expand their PSG knowledge and skills to sign up.

Thanks

Thanks to everyone for you comments. I am blessed to have some very fine players within not too many miles. I do need to call up Mike Sweeney, we played together in a couple bands back in the early '80's.

Thanks again !

Bobbe Seymour

I stopped in to see my friend Bobbe the other day. It is ALWAYS a pleasure to drop in and chat ( and make a purchase or two ). Bobbe is a treasure. I wish we would have met years ago.

And, I must say the folks over at Steel Guitar Nashville are top shelf in my book. They introduced me to the new amp.

Nashville 112

I have used a Nashville 400 for many years, and on several different instruments. I just got my 112 today and I am thrilled, I think it will be a great amp too, and lighter. :)

Yes,

I wish I had taken up PSG when I was your age Austin, hang in there and maybe one day we will see you ...

I am now addicted to this guitar as I learn my way around. Bobbe's instructional materials are a great help. Goo...
