Good job Richard,
You handle a universal 12 very well -- keep up the practicing
and the posting's. I have lost track of all the great Steel players that have come out of the U.K. over the years --
Dave Nash, Spencer Scott , Peter R. Jones, Micky Byrne, Bashil, Ken Byng,Sara Jory, and way back a few years, Gordon Huntley (now deceased) and John Davis just to name a very few. Keep up the good work Richard -- youve got some big shoes to fill, and you can do it !!

Not my favorite song (a littel too schmaltzy for me), but that's a very sweet rendition, Richard. Did you tune straight up ET? Whatever, the intonation sounded fine to me.
Phillip, don't forget my favorite UK steeler, B.J. Cole.  |

David,
Please forgive my old failing brain -- by all means, the man
who "crossed over the Grand Canyon" of styles to support
Elton John, to Garth Brooks , B.J.Cole !!!
This man could rattle a room, or, lull you to sleep with his
remarkable Pedal Steel work.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the kind words
Phillip, its an 11 stringer, although it looks like a 12, as the keyhead is 6 on one side and 5 on the other.
Ignore the contraption that I've put where the 11th machine head should be, that's another story !
DD, I tune (straight up, to 440) with the pedals down method, to minimise the effect of cabinet drop |

Very nice clean playing, Richard; You are the second person from the UK which I've had the pleasure of listening to this Eve. Just heard Sarah Jory on Utube; Both of you do a fine job, Does anyone over in the UK have a clip of B.J.Cole doing his thing; I've never heard of him.. Sounds like he is one of your valued steel players.. Would enjoy hearing him.. Thanks, Richard..Bernie  _________________ 2007 Zum S-10; 1967 Sho-Bud [ D-10 ]; 85 S-10 Sierra; 1953 Multi-Kord [ 6 String- 4 pedals ] A Sho-Bro six String Resonator Guitar; Nashville 112 Amp; hilton Vol. Pedal |
