A Mighty Fortress-Dobro

Post by Lee Baucum »

This is similar to Bill Keith's arrangement in Winnie Winston's old Pedal Steel Guitar book. I transposed it to the key of G and tabbed it out for dobro. I'm not a dobro player. Let me know how it works out.

Lee,

I just found this while searching for "reso-Gospel" ideas...great job. I think I'll run it by the Praise Band.

Thanks,

Tom Jordan

I posted this almost 3 years ago!

If you have the nerve, you can play this solo. I tried to cover the melody, along with a harmony note and the bass as much as possible.

It was fun. Now, if I only played "dobro"!

Lee,
That was great!!! It was pretty easy to follow ...and I'm a newbie. It sounded great with my Oahu Tonemaster thru my SF Princeton Reverb ...a liitle reverb and vibrato and a lot of volume pedal. My wifey walked thru and said ..."Wow, sounds like an organ". Great tab. I will try to use it at church sometime.
thanx again,
Fred
