| That Desert Rose sounds really nice through the Mesa Boogie! I enjoyed that and the balloons that pop up with running commentary cracked me up - especially the "ouch!". |

Very smooth playing ...and remember that an "aw sh--" is always canceled out by an "atta boy."

b0b: I have watched this several times now and found something in your right hand technique that took me back to the beginning.
I had the Jerry Byrd course then and he made note of the fact that a string sounds different if you pick it at the end or near the middle. I became so involved with that one point that I taught myself to center my right hand as close to the center of the barred position as I could.
That is what I think your are doing as you move your right hand in relationship to the bar position. But you may not be doing that at all, which is why I am asking. BTW: I didn't think the twang was noticable.
It took me a long time to break that ingrained habit I had learned early on. I have noticed watching various players on the Forum that no one else does it until I saw your clip. Maybe I was right in this first place...what do you think ??   
Regards, Paul |

Paul,
I do try to position my right hand towards the center of the vibrating string. I think that's where you get the fullest tone. It depends on the song, though. Never underestimate the power of your right hand to control your tone.
I have sat down at the steel and heard horrible tones, and then 10 minutes later without changing any settings it sounded quite acceptable. My right hand just needed to warm up. I do this unconsciously now, but there were times when I spent many hours working on finger pick angles, right hand positioning and blocking. It makes a world of difference.
Thanks everyone for the compliments.

Well, I just got a digital video camera a couple of weeks ago. I'll try to do more as time permits.
