The Steel Guitar Forum

Hi everyone, my name is Dusty and I'm new on here. I've been reading the boards for quite some time and I decided it was high time I actually joined. Been playing the dobro for a couple years now, but I'm new to the pedal steel, just got my first, a mid-70's Sho-Bud Pro, which I love a lot. I look forward to learning a lot from you guys!

thanks a lot everyone, I feel really welcome already. Basil, i have a Regal Black Lightning, I like it a lot, good tone, plays nice. I almost took the money I had and bought a National Model D Western but I decided on a pedal steel and i'm really glad I did! do you play the ol' squareneck as well?

Dustin, the Regal is a VERY nice resonator guitar, my reso is just a "Bitsa"

You should post a few examples of your playing, but PLEASE don't use my stuff as yardstick, click this :-

Jump in there son !

Hey Dusty: A big loud welcome aboard to a fellow " DOBRO Player" from my grand state of N.Y. I live in the foot hills of the adirondacks, a small town of Edwards. I play a Square neck Resonator called a " SHO-BRO", built for me by the late and great " SHOT Jackson." So I am also a member of that sho-Bud Club. My former steel was a "LDG" model of the sho-Bud Family Now own an S-10 known as a " Sierra ".But no matter which steel guitar you own, you are now a member of a great organization.Send me an E Mail sometime, O.K?..Bernie [ BING ][/url][/quote][/u][/b]

thanks again everyone, I can't wait to jump on in. Bernie, good to meet you. I love the Sho-Bro's, wish I could own one! I just watched an episode of Hee Haw and Shot was on there playing his Sho-Bro, white with gold tuners and coverplate. it was beautiful. I'm just outside Utica, N.Y., I think i've gone through Edwards before. do you go to the Fox Family Bluegrass festival up in Old Forge?

Glad to have ya, we need all the steel pickers we can get, right here on the forum
