The Steel Guitar Forum

Here's the latest from my home studio. This is as country as it gets. First time to record using the Quilter Superblock on steel.

Nice work Rick

Nice mix work.

Very good!

Now that's traditional country, amazing, you hit a grand slammer and to top it off, your a one man band.

Keep them coming.

The steel sounds awesome.

What amp & steel?

very good work, Rick, great sound and musicianship!

Sounds great, sir. Well done.

Very well done Rick! Love the sound you are getting. Man that dog house bass is the icing on the cake! Please keep em' coming. Joe.

Real country from the heart. Nice Rick. What a band you have assembled. Time to go on the road.

Well Done Rick!

Why heck yes! That's a good un there.

Hey Rick: Very good. Sounding good. Keeping posting. B safe Your brothers sound purdy good too.

Good job Rick.....I just saw where you sent that to me on my phone last Friday....

Still a good job my friend......

Nice job, Rick. Real country. Did you write this tune as well as play everything?

No, I did not write this one. It's a Wayne Kemp song Wayne was one of the best country writers in the business.

Yes, I'm doing all the music with the help of Band In A Box, EZ Drummer, EZ Keys, MIDI etc... and my struggled attempt to play and do all the vocals.

Glad you enjoyed!

I shure can hear Wayne Kemp! He's my alltime favorite Singer/Songwriter. Pure Countrysoul! Great picking on all the instruments and I like the way you're singing, Wayne Kemp-like And the steel sounds great too!Congratulations

Well done. You're super talented, Rick!

Very Nice.

Awesome job on everything Rick! That's my idea of a great country music sound. That's what I grew up listening to in the 1960's. You got the touch!!

Rick you did a very good job on this song. I think it was better than what I am hearing in today's country music...The Steel was also good. There is still a few folks out there..."Thank God" that can sing a good country song. A while back there was a lady on this forum..."I don't know her name" but she was Awesome...She had a great voice...and could sing as good as anyone that I ever heard. Ricky Davis was playing great steel behind her...and with her country voice...and Ricky's awesome steel work...Well... it was as good as it gets. Thanks for posting a very good country song.

Thank you Joe. I'm still dialing it in, but it's a really sweet piece of gear. It makes getting the tone and levels a lot easier. I like to record direct when I can. I don't think the Superblock gives you any better sound than you can get other ways, it's just seems to make it easier and faster to get there. I'm learning as I do these things. I'll probably never learn enough to outgrow my 10x10 bedroom studio, but I'm having fun.
