Sacred Steeler Chris Johnson with Alvin Lee and the Lee Boys band aired on Michael Johathan's Woodsongs a few days ago. I really enjoyed the show and Chris' playing and he got lots of solo time. I believe he was playing an S10 Carter with some graphics on the front.

I've heard RR, Aubrey, Calvin et al and I know the style of music has been around for years and Del Ray Grace posts about it here.

The type of edgy sound is something I would like to explore as I think it would fit well with some of the music my friends like to play.

I know the tuning is a bit different than I use for E9 and that tone is just great for the music.

I think it was archive #985 if anybody is interested in watching it or the whole hour and a half show including bluesman Grady Champion's sets, is on youtube here:
