The Steel Guitar Forum

Here's my arrangement of Tenderly on 6-string non-pedal steel, C6 tuning. Twice through the melody, no fills, no frills, no improv, hope you like it.

Thank you, sounds great!

Thanks, Joachim!

Oh my, that's BEAUTIFUL! Simply beautiful in it's simplicity.

I want to dance to that at my (next) wedding!

Thanks Dianne, you're welcome to use it at your next wedding!

Hi Doug, while I'm not a steelguitar player, I use SG on all my recordings. I love steel and have been lucky enough to have worked with some of the best. I Love your playing and was wondering where you recorded Tenderly?and I love the bass quality. What did you use for that? Denny

Thanks, Denny. I recorded it on my home computer using Audacity, which is a free software program. The bass and drums are band-in-a-box, and I added rhythm guitar (Strat). So the only "real instruments" are the steel and the rhythm guitar. The chain for the steel guitar goes like this:

steel --> black box (tube filter) --> Goodrich volume pedal --> Holy Grail Reverb --> into computer.

Thanks again for your kind comments, much appreciated!

what do you use for BIAB sounds? onboard computer synth? any outboard module?

real sweet arr. BTW!

Thanks, Dave. There is no outboard module, just the internal sound card in my PC. I have BIAB 2007. The BIAB style I'm using is WLZ~SLOW... bass, drums (brushes), and Pad-Warm strings mixed back quite a bit. I made a Wav of that track, ritard at the end, and imported it to Audacity. Then I added rhythm guitar, and the steel last.

Thanks, Bernie! I'm glad you like it.
