The Steel Guitar Forum

these amps were out many years ago, 25 yrs or so. Then someone had idea to improve it and they missed big time (in my opinion).

1st time i ever saw/heard one, Weldon was playing through it one tv taping for tnn. Billy Walker was the artist and i was playing lead.
Of course, Weldon would sound great playing through a pig-nose amp !!!

where in ohio is the amp? i'm coming to south/central oh. this weekend

Porter & Dolly played Grammer guitars on some of those shows and I think Buck Trent played a Mosrite electric.

Mrs. Danmyer passed away tuesday around noon.
She had been ill for several months.
Please keep Rusty and his family in your prayers.
Mrs, Danmyer is at the Burke funeral home in Maiden N.C.

I was working in the same band as Wayne when he got a new Sho Bud. We were playing a cruise ship and at the end of the cruise they tossed, no threw, his new guitar off the ship onto the loading dock. Wayne was watching and his little W. Va butt was ready to kick some ... but when he got down to the ...

John wrote me in an email that he was just pickin on me
and he was sure everyone knew he was.
I think I'll just keep the volume pedal.
Sorry John!!
(guess I told him)

what do you call reasonable?? I have one I bought from one of the ALL TIME GREATS. How bad do you want it??

Diamond Rio might be the group, Bubba Hyde might be the song, but then again maybe not.

I have one, not used much at all. Drop me an email.37216

Did I really write he's just leaning??
Way too funny to erase.
He's just learning is what I meant to say.
I'm leaning!!

You can close this one up.
Thanks Bob

My 21 year old nephew is looking to buy a used amp to play keys through. Something with a 12 inch speaker should work. He's just leaning. Nashville area would be great.
Thanks,

Did anyone else see the Les Anderson "New Panhandle Rag" video on the same page as this one? There is a female playin the solo on the steel. Wonder who that was??

Spider Wilson on guitar, Jerry Whitehurst on piano and Harold Weakly on snare.

Mike "Cookie" Jones will be at the Long Hollow Jamboree Friday 7:30 - 11:00. It's on Long Hollow Pike. The other players will be Ric Boyer, Rick Vanaugh, Kathy Kuhn, Damon Gray and fellow Buckey Billy Johnson. Come see us.

I was playing guitar with Billy at that time. Gene Oneal did some work with Billy at that time. We did a package tour with Wanda Jackson in Germany. Hal Rugg did a weekend with us when Billy was in need of a sub. That was a ton of fun. Stu Basore worked some too. Ron Hogan did most of the steel gigs...

Buddy Jewel got dropped by his lable last week.
He is a good singer.

I was lucky enough to be playing bass at the ET record shop one saturday night with Jean Shepard and Billy Grammer was her guest. It sure was a treat and he did some of his finest pickin ever that night. They should have him on the opry a lot more.

Good luck and a safe trip to O'Elliotts.

As a lead player that started as out as a bass player, IMO anything below the low D is lost. Kubiki made a 4 string with 2 extra frets on the E string that is perfect.I've only seen a couple of these in Nshville but they are great and play the same. You may try a search to find out info on them. Goo...

Russ, play tonight, just not too loud !!

Billy

Stu Basore recorded with Dolly too.

Just wanted to let you know that Eddie is doing just fine here in Nashville. I just finished working a gig with him. He reminds me of myself when I moved here when I was 18.
Art told me about him before I met him. He is doing you PROUD !!

I noticed there is no banjo simulator.

God Bless You
