Thanks Roger, yes, this is my first youtube post with the West Coast guitar. I've played it on a couple of local recording sessions and had good results. The pickup is a bit hotter than I'm used to though. I'm a single coil guy, and I think this is a humbucker (GeorgeLs).

Wow. Great playing Doug. Nice tone out of the West Coast steel, too. 2 thumbs up, more if I had 'em.

Thanks Ron, C6/A7 is a great tuning. It's a combination tuning. Skip the C strings, it's A7. Skip the C# string, it's C6.
