Another good one Rick!!! Move to Austin (... or wait, maybe somewhere just 'kinda close', I wouldn't wish living in Austin on anyone I like.. LOL) and I'll keep you busy! Awesome job, as always.

I can't believe this is an actual discussion.

I had a pickup go 'weird' on my '66 bolt-on, it was 'working', but really bright, and when I measured it, the meter showed open, no continuity.

Some players actually like that slight roll off of the high end that occurs when you back off the volume on a pot pedal. It's not necessarily a bad thing. As Nick mentioned, it's a bit variable depend ...

That's the Zum Tommy was playing when I met him... Smile

It was a Cory Morrow gig in New Braunfels I think, not sure.. wherever it was, I was on guitar, still fairly new to steel, and I stood there wit ...

Dang Ricky! 23 years?? Hard to believe...

We're long overdue for a visit, I need to find time to get out to a Weldon gig. Take care my friend!

Wayne moved to Texas for a while after he left Martina, and I was fortunate enough to meet him and hang a bit. Great guy, and easily one of the best players around. He's on Facebook from time to time, ...

You have to know what YOU and ONLY you; want to hear

That's about it as far as I'm concerned... I'm sure Ricky is sick of me telling this story (sorry pal.. LOL) but I had a single lesson with him ...

Start with the shift all the way up.

I've got two D-10 bolt-ons, 1014-D and 2542 (invoice serial).. I did a lot of research when I ended up with 2542, including searches for Emmons serial number discussions here on the forum, and in othe ...

I just got mine. I don’t like the sound of peavey Nash 400s in general but this box from TC has a very distinctive sound and response that is captivating. I’m really enjoying it.

Hey Bob, it's ...

I'm clueless. Everything is far from here!

Lost Pines Studio?

I wish.. LOL! Hint: Recorded not too far from you, and you know who the steel player is also.

I'll take that over the time I snagged a pick just right on a string, and it somehow launched in a perfect arc off the stage and onto the dance floor.. I was pretty embarrassed to push a dancer back a ...

Brennen Leigh has been 'popular' around Austin for a long time, it's great to see her get a bit more recognition, and I love that song! Along those same 'geographical' lines, try this one. Bonus point ...

I’m kind of nutty that way

You could say that about steel players in general really... Smile

..the sound of our beloved discrete solid state amp..

Exactly, I'm convinced the lack of any op-amps is a large part of the magic...

I've got a first year Session 400, the JBL was long gone when I got it, but it has the 'spider web' BW that came along shortly after and it sounds great. I've got a stable of amps that work well for s ...

I'm pretty sure those filter caps are axial lead, the snap and terminal type would require more 'handy' work to wire up and secure properly. These aren't as cheap as they used to be but Mouser seems t ...

Mine has served me well for decades.

Yeah, virtually indestructible... I've had mine since the 80's I think. Recovered the seat once, that's it...

My vintage Ace pack seat and Steelaire are almost the exact same height. I set the seat up a foot or so from the amp, and the case straddles across them perfectly. Tear-down is just the reverse, I get ...
