The Steel Guitar Forum

I came from being a medeocre bass player. It was the best thing I could have ever done before taking up the steel. Really taught me timing and discipline.

I played bass as a kid and moved on to classical cello before I got into steel. I have owned guitars but can't really play them.
I find students that play piano have a much easier time understanding the steel than guitar players do. Also students with a background in the brass instruments tend to have a more developed ear than guitar or piano players.
