Playing steel with handicaps.................
If I understand it correctly, Jules Ah See, had a deformed left hand. A custom glove was made that would permit the holding of a steel bar.
With that and his burning desire to pursue the music he loved...... Jules went on to become a living legend in Hawaiian Music circles and the steel guitar
community.
YOU TUBE is featuring a number of videos at this time showing Jules playing his fabulous style. If you want to see vintage steel guitar stylists and hear the music of that era.....you might drop into
the jerrybyrdchannel, hosted by Stein-frederic of Norway.
You're certain to enjoy it.
