The Steel Guitar Forum

I left Dallas with some of Jody Camerons C6 on E9th material... Jody is such an incredible teacher, who explains things well, tells you the numbers and the chords which I don't always know... AND he talks slow... Anyhow I HIGHLY recommend his material to anybody wanting to learn some new ideas and positions... By now you all know how much I like the 9th string... Well there's some other stuff to look at as well... I kind of took some liberties with this and blew it in a couple places, but you'll get the idea... AND if you were in the MSA room in Dallas, you'll get the ending

Great work as usual, better ending. I was there. Travis would be proud.

Thanks Jim... Wasn’t as clean as I would have liked, but there’s SO many strings and SO many Pedals and Knee Levers, and SO much for me to remember It’s hard for me to keep it all straight.

BTW... have you loaded that speaker yet?, and if so, what do you think?... I hooked up both of my 15’s to my amp, so 2 12’s and 2 15’s and it sounds yummy

Dale,

I finally got some time to compare the Double-T 15 to the Telonics. I sent you a PM in case my reply I was off topic.

Always enjoy hearing you pick Dale...Thanks... Carl

lOVED YOUR SOUND & STYLE. WISH I COULD MAKE NON PEDALS COME CLOSE TO SOUNDING LIKE THAT. MAYBE SOME PLAGIARIZATION & CREATIVITY ON MY PART IS IN ORDER.

Thanks Carl and Don, I appreciate your comments.

Dale that was a great job. The ending was priceless.

Dale, nice work and great tone. Loved that ending.

That was great! Another thumbs up on the ending.. I’m going to steal that 😉

Thanks Gentlemen... Thank Travis Toy for that ending... Travis used it a time or two in the MSA room and I guess its kinda burned into my mind... LOL

Dale, on the MSA S10 could you explane what you're doing with the Left Knee right as far as the 9th string. I Dont think I’ve ever seen that change before, It sounds cool. Also Why the duplicstion of the 6th string lower on this same knee lever.

You found me out Bob

I’m lowering 9 a whole, down to C, the reason I also duplicate the whole lower of 6 on the that same KL, is because I use that change with the whole lower of 9...
I can also split that with the B pedal and also lower 4 with my RKL as well...
I also hit my 5th pedal where I’m lowering 5 a whole.
There’s a lot of combinations I’m able to use there... if I were smarter theory wise, I might be able to find another way...
LKR, is very close to what you would get 2 frets below where you’d use the knee lever, by hitting strings 9765 with the A pedal...
but for me its a little harder to get that grip and the transition not as smooth...
And then I would lose all the combinations I can get with LKR...

I know it sounds pretty convoluted and sorry if I only added confusion to your question.

Dale, that was clear as mud I know what you mean about theory. Had I spent more time on theory and less time on steel guitar rag I might be better off. That's a sweet change at any rate. That little MSA is a tone monster it sounds great.
