i seem to have lost my part 1 DVD for jeff newman's 'swinging C6'. i wonder if anyone has a copy that they'd be willing to rip and dropbox to me?

weldon myrick was one of the first steel players i got into when i first started playing because my wife was listening to a lot of connie smith. his intro to 'hinges on the door' knocked me out. he se ...

a few years ago i had that kind of time to practice, and i also played a lot of gigs. i developed tendonitis in my volume pedal ankle. i had to wrap it an wear a brace to gigs, and even ice it between ...

if weight is a concern, i'd recommend the neo jensens that come with the tonemaster twin. after a decent break in period they are surprisingly good sounding.

oh my!!! i didn't realize he was back up and running. this is amazing news!!!!

yeah, i'm more concerned with the physical stability than the tuning. i figure if it is built with the same mechanics as the normal push pull it should stay in tune pretty well.

i've read that chan ...

they're very easy to work on.

parts used to be available via michael yahl at psg parts, but sadly he's not making them currently.

depending on the mechanism (probably rack and barrel if it is a ...

i've been thinking about getting one of these as a second guitar. being so light, i'm curious about their stability.

i had a backyard welder make me a bunch of those this past summer. very easy to make.

that's not a good buy.

you should be able to get a silverface 70s era twin for that price, which is much easier to work on and modify.

it’s two hole pullers, so it’s a standard rod, threaded on one end with a nylon tuner.
i had parts made my taking lots of pictures and taking the existing knee lever parts
to a machinist.

i've begun puttng the legs and pedal bar in a tripod bag. it helps.

so true, roger. there's no trick changes or fancy fingerings. he's just really musical and really skilled.

i'm not 100% sure the x10 comes in narrow mount. as far as i know, it was made for specific guitars, all of which had wide mounts.

at that price they better be pretty great picks!

the only real difference is the reverb. i believe that the other updates listed don't change anything. the reverb update has the reverb coming on a bit later on the knob, but doesn't change the dwell ...

i figure 8 or 9 pounds is about right. i think if you save all the parts and don't drill any holes in it, there isn't much of a downside. i've been considering getting a push pull that needs an overha ...

that great tone of a steel plugged straight into an amp that we all love and remember is really the tone of a steel plugged straight into an amp, recorded with an extremely expensive microphone, then ...

i kind of agree with what dave said above. i use my eq when i play with a fender twin, because its stock mid range control is not ideal for pedal steel. when a use my session 400 i find i don’t both ...

many eq pedals add a lot of noise, which is not ideal. most eq units are graphic eqs, which may or may not have the right frequencies chosen for steel. you need a high quality parametric eq. i’ve tr ...

empress normally has a scratch and dent section on their website. they sell pedals with cosmetic flaws at something like a 20-25% discount. i got mine on reverb for super cheap (imagine that).

wow, great deal. i have a pair of the 12" and they sound great. if shipping wasn't so crazy i'd be tempted to jump on these!

i have an empress compressor. of the many that i've tried recently (wampler, keeley, ross) it is the best sounding one, probably because it is the most transparent. i think when you're dealing with co ...

that is cool. looks kind of zb inspired, including the undercarriage.

that's me. i had red light syndrome pretty bad, eben though it was in my basement.

this group had a lineup/name change. we're working hard at making original honky tonk and beyond tunes (at the pac ...
