That steel player is definately one of the best I have ever heard. What a great tone and knowledge of music he has. Don't know who he is but you can see his belly and he is certainly fueled by bisquits and gravy....like me.<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Rick Nicklas on 17 September 2005 at 06:40 AM.]</p></FONT>

Did you notice how small the bar he was using is?
Is that a clue?

Who out there uses the small bars?

Thanks for the link Damir!

The bar is not small, it just appears to be, since it is often hidden in the hand.

This shows it best:

I found the unusual technique in this photo interesting:

The right hand, especially the Thumb Pick placement, looks like Doug Jernigan

So who is it?
