The Steel Guitar Forum

Thanks JD, I've got it now. I'll have to do a little guitar backing track to see how that method sounds against it. Yeah, my Bebop chops are on saxophone but they are mostly a bag of tricks/licks and a little blues thrown in. Jerry Gleason (who you might know from this forum) is an incredible Bebop ...

Thanks so much you guys (and Sam Conomo who sent me a PM about this). My steel (E9, usual ABC pedals, 4 knees, one vertical, plus a number 4 pedal) is on the bench and I'm removing the "Franklin" setup from my 4th pedal as there are plenty of lush sounds there already and it bugs me having...

I know people have covered this kind of stuff before but I haven't seen what I'm looking for. I want to play some jazz and, among other things, want the sound of just one note moving down a 1/2 step (the b7 of the ii moves down a 1/2 step to become the 3 of the V chord) It's the same deal for the ii...

The case has been sold. Thanks for looking.

Thanks Rodger,

Just checking. Have good holidays.

Hi Roger,

Would you want to sell your Extra Deep TKL?

I've also got a nice Calton case that fits
and E-body if you know of anyone who might be interested in something like that.

Thanks,

Jon

Hi again Rodger. I measured my Beard Jerry Douglas and it's dimensions are all just a little bit smaller than the inner dimensions of the Crossrock case. I measured the double-shot on my Copper Creek and it requires just short of an extra 1.5" which with the JD body being 4" deep should be...

Thanks again Rodger, I think I found the Crossrock one you are talking about (see below). The measurements look good for my Jerry Douglas signature model (E-Body) as long as the 5.5 inch depth works. I think I'll give it a try. The price is right. I have one of those soft cases Beard sells for my Co...

Thanks Rodger.

Do you have the model number for that crossrock case?

Thanks,

Jon

Hi, I just put a Hipshot Double-shot on my Beard dobro. It increases the thickness of the guitar by almost 1 inch. I'm wondering if anyone out there knows about a hard-shell case option for an instrument like this? Beard has a case called "extra deep" but is out of stock and I'd like to co...

SOLD off forum

Donation though when buyer in Canada actually receives
and approves it.

Shipping to Canada was the worst experience I've ever
had shipping something. NEVER again shipping
outside of CONUS

Awaiting payment.

I bought this Nashville 112 from Carter around 2006 after I sold my Franklin double-neck and bought one of his single-neck E9 guitars so I'd still have a pedal-steel available. After that pretty much didn't play any more pedal-steel as I got into doing single 8 jazz/western swing stuff and used a sm...

Sold pending funds

Thanks,

I'll poke around some more and see if I can
see farther back from the sound holes. Otherwise I won't worry about it for now as failing seeing it that way, I'd have to take the resonator out to look further.

Thanks for the info.

I'm doing an inventory for my insurance company and can't find the serial number on my Wechter Sheerhorn Rob Ickes model. Does anyone know where it is on the guitar?

Thanks,

This question seems to be an endless topic of conversation. The 40's recording is out of tune by about 1/4 tone and makes people hear what they want to hear. If you tune down about 1/4 tone and listen to the bass and not the horns, you'll hear: || / DD / | F F / / | / BbBb / | EbEb // || modulating ...

Hi, I just got a Digitech RP255 to use as a volume pedal, EQ, delay, reverb. I'm not using any of the amp models and I'm getting a great sound out of it. The only problem is that when I strike a string and try to swell it with the volume pedal, there is a scratchy sound at the beginning of the pedal...
