I just wanted to thank William for the great lessons I receive every week. He even took time to help me work on a piece I have been struggling with. That's what you get for only 5 dollars a week!! The technique exercises are great. When you start working on a song that you want to learn and you play a part of it, then it hits you! I've done that move before in a technique exercise. Thanks William for helping this Tennessee boy learn this instrument and making it affordable and accessible.[/list]

William is a great teacher, you will learn a lot using his lessons. Plus he has a unique sense of humor which I like. I look forward to each Saturday broadcast.

We do like to have some fun.

Jason, it's good to have some young blood in the Steel-In deal. I thought I was the young pup at 45. :lol:

Hey jsut for kicks, what kind of guitars are ya'll pickin on who take William's lessons?

I'll start, just to show it's not a race or competition, I have a little old Stage One being kicked in the butt by Li'l Izzy. Her sound is true and she eats rattlesnakes 3X a week...

Here's mine. I started with a red stage one. But I wanted a vertical lever and half stops and it wasn't possible so I sold it and bought the old Bud!! I'm 39 and ready to learn more!!

I've been playing for quite a while, but I sometimes still fall into a rut.
Will's lessons keep me moving forward and the guys in the bands I work with notice it.
Will's lessons are by no means just for beginners. Everyone can benefit from them in my opinion.

Here's my main squeeze "Miss Emily"

Here is my Excel, purchased from forumite Jim Cohen, and my Dynalap lap steel.

I got the Dynalap kit and finished it myself. I have not played it much recently focusing on the pedal steel.

...well, not exactly, what is that on the knee levers on the one on the left?

Otherwise I agree....lol

My 2 cents, YMMV.
