"My Sweet Lord" on the Lap Steel

Post by Chuck S. Lettes »

I always loved George Harrison's slide guitar, especially his intro to "My Sweet Lord." After working up the intro, I decided to try the whole song on my lap steel (with some pedal steel background). Hope you enjoy the arrangement.

Thanks, guys. The frets get way smaller when I play the intro to this tune. It took me some practice to get in tune.
