The Steel Guitar Forum

We are in the process of making an instructional video dealing with C6-type chord voicings on the standard E9 tuning. This is a preview we put on youtube...hope you all like it! jc

So Jody, I guess now everyone can get rid of the C-6 neck. Nice playing my friend. Count me in for one of your DVD's.
Later, Bill

Thanks much, Bill! Copy will be saved for you....jc

Hey JC. Sounds like a great project. JB

Thanks JB. Here is a new link...we now have the split screen up.

You done good JC,JB

this is exactly what i need right now.

where can i order the dvd?

Hi Aaron - you can email me at emmonsd10@yahoo.com I will mail you one as soon as they are ready. Cost will be $15.00 for the DVDs. Thanks, jc

Other than Heart of a clown; What else is on the DVD?
(I can hear the price of D-10's falling) This is great Jody. Greg

Ha! Thanks Greg. The DVD is about 30 -40 mins. long and covers different chord grips (things other than the normal triad grips, a lot of 5,6 and 9 string stuff), as well as some ideas for the 6/2/5/1 turnaround that is commonly used in jazzy-type material. I talk about 6th chords, the 6/9 chord, maj 7ths, maj 9ths, substitutions and the b9 dominant chords and how to find them and use them. I also cover some ideas for "Nightlife" intro. on E9. Thanks for your interest.

Bravo Jody!! Nice work and very nice playing. It is players like yourself that will help knock down the cliches associated with the e9th c6th paradigm. Kudos to you for the very illustrative and definitive sample on your video!

Jody,
nice going! I really can't afford the DVD, but since you are close to me, just swing by and show me how to "do dat". See you soon.....

Way to go my friend! This will be a great DVD! Good stocking stuffer for the holidays I have pretty much been going to Jody once a week for 2 years! he puts his heart and soul into teaching and the steel guitar..so this is a bump for for my good friend Mr. Jody Cameron ...and I wish him well on this project! Save one for me!

Brandon

Count me in for one copy of your dvd to!! This sounds great!
Uffe

Thanks to all. Frank, I've got one of your CDs, it's great! I've been a Frank Rogers fan for a while now - your comments mean a lot to me. Uffe, your in! PLease send me your address. jc

Hey Jody this is great! Maybe I won't have to practice my c6 after all. Folks I spent 2 days with Jody in a seminar a couple of months back and my head is still spinning! He gave me a lifetime of work to do in those 2 days! He is a fine teacher and this has to be good. Jody, save me one and let me know when they are ready.

Jim Means

Thank you Jim...hope you are doing well. Maybe I will see you in Dallas?

I've had a couple of questions about the pulls on my guitar that I used in the video. I did the entire song using only the A & B pedals and the knees that raise and lower the E's. It can all be done on a 2-pedal 2-lever guitar. The key is string groups...I use different grips than just the standard 3 string grips we all know and love.

WOW Jody! You've got my attention. Please save a copy for me. This is Outstanding.

Jody, I can't wait for the CD. Looks like a few of the things you covered in our class in Rolla, Mo. in a condensed version. This should give these guys a taste of your teaching technique's minus the jokes and road stories unless you threw a couple in. I can't wait to order mine. If you lived close to Branson I would be one of your most faithful students and I'm sure there would be an apple or cider on your steel every week from me. Thanks for all that you do for us steelers.

Your pal
Rick Nicklas

Thank you so much Rick! I will save you a copy. I proofed the video today when I got home. It looks OK, should be done in about 2 weeks, give or take. The interest in this little project has been overwhelming! I promise I will get all the orders out just as soon as I can, and thanks to all you guys who have responded. jc

Well Jody, this is driving me nuts! I'll have a copy when ready. Ken

I'll get you a copy ASAP, Ken. Please send your mailing address to emmonsd10@yahoo.com thanks, jc

Jody: This looks so good I'll buy two. Let me know when they're ready. I'll keep watching this post every day. Tommy..........

Good Deal, Tommy - and thank you.

The master is on it's way to me now, after which I will send it to California for duplication. They told me it would be a 7-day turnaround to get them duplicated, then they will ship them to me; so I'm thinking it will be about 2 weeks before those of you who have ordered a DVD will receive it. I'm on top of it and will get them out just as soon as I can.

Thanks again to all who have ordered the DVD. jc

Nicely done, Jody; very nicely done!
