A fun tune for high G. I like pairing this with "Minor Swing" in a medley.

Since there has not been anything posted for awhile I decided to post this Christmas Hymn that I have tabbed out for C6. This is my first tab post, sorry if the quality is not there, being hand written. Took it from the LDS hymnbook and it does not have any chords.

I have included the piano notes even though these are not all used. In order to keep the tablature section 'pure' post any comments, critiques and the like to the non-pedal section of the forum.

Hi Ricky, This is a treasure chest. Thank you very much. Sorry you never made it out to Maui to see the place and its many (expensive) golf courses. I've moved away from Hawaii as of 3 weeks ago and I'm in Thailand now. Quite a difference. Keep up the good work. Don

Someone would be a hero if they tabbed this one out for Lap Steel

short pedal steel solo in the middle.

...not that I'd be able to play it yet, though my wife says my songs are almost beginning to sound like music.

Look, Ma - no pedals!

Don Davis steel solo from George Morgan’s “Room Full Of Roses” (1949).

It looks like the tuning for the top 7 notes goes like this (hi to lo):

E C# G# E B G# F#

Am I close? That solo sounds great. You can tell that he is the one who played the solo on Hank's "Wedding Bells". Thanks for the tab!

Hi Steve -

I just used the "standard" 10-string E9 tuning sans pedals. FF.

With all the threads about slants lately, this tab and video might be of interest. I took the melody from a study by 19th century classical guitarist Fernando Sor and added a bass line to it to include 20 different slants. Forward and reverse, but all two-strings only. Sort of an intermediate "slants workout". It's not a very good demonstration of technique, like Mike Neer's, but might be a good practice exercise if you like classical guitar music.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, so if not please tell me where would be best.

Does anyone know where I might find tab for Tom Morrell's "Wagon Wheels", off his CD "Juglin Cats" track 8? This is for dobro. Thanks.

First tab for C6-lap steel. Not perfect, but a first step...

Thank you John for posting this song. I have been practicing it every day for the last couple months or so. It is finally begginning to sound like the song. This has been good for me because the timing has been a bit tricky as it has caused me to pay better attention to the time of each note.
If you come up with more gems to post, I'm awatchin'.
Have a great week.
Dick

Dick Chapple Sr · Post by **Dick Chapple Sr** » 9 Apr 2013 11:54 am

It's been a year and a half since you posted Suger Moon on here Andy. Just to let you know I sure appreciate it. I have practiced that one everyday. Finally almost have it memorized. It's fun to play and sounds real nice.

Should you have any more c6th 6string tabs to post I sure would use them. Or even tabs in other 6 string tunings.
Thanks so much and have a great week.
Dick

Kawohikukapulani – the Jerry Byrd video.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5d9w2d6nQo

These later performances by Jerry are some of my favourites, and many forum members will be familiar with this particular video. This transcription is limited to pitches and approximate duration. I have transcribed it here using Tuxguitar. The programme is quite good for standard guitar of seven strings and it is free. While working with the audio, please bear in mind the difficulty of interpreting the steel guitar within the Tuxguitar programme.
The first nine bars were played out of meter. The values are pretty close, and I welcome any corrections or suggestions. There are several long slides, vibratos, and broad arpeggios. Variations in the speed of the slides and runs are part of the emotional feel. An absolutely accurate interpretation of Jerry’s nuanced delivery would be worthy of a PhD thesis, but that would not be nearly as much fun as giving the arrangement one’s own personal touch. A PDF is available.

PS On that first C7th chord, it is probably better to go to a double stop on the 6th fret instead of the reverse slant I indicated.

Thanks to Steve Green for the video download.

Jim Williams · Post by **Jim Williams** » 31 Oct 2013 11:56 am

Here is my first attempt at finding a tune and tabbing it out. I'm putting it here as much for constructive criticism as anything else, but if it proves to be useful to beginners like me, then that's great too.

Roy Thomson · Post by **Roy Thomson** » 1 Nov 2013 3:32 pm

Hi Jim,

I see you wrote that in the key of Eb. Not a very common key for Steel solos unless you have a horn in the band? I would transpose it to D major ( move it all down one fret) OR move it up a fret to E Major. Those are more common to Spanish guitar players who may chord along some backup for you.
I did a quick ClicTab in the key of D and you will note I divided the music up into measures. This is 4/4 time so it maintains 4 beats to the bar.
Not being critical OK....
You are doing great and I hope this helps.

Jim Williams · Post by **Jim Williams** » 1 Nov 2013 7:51 pm

Thanks for the comments Roy...no particular reason for the Eb, just where it sounded right with the audio track I was following. Thanks for the transpose and adding the measures.
