I don't know if Bobby koefer is still playing. I think he's about 95.

Good going Dom. I really like the whole thing, sound, tone, pickin', words, etc. You did good.

I'm certain I have exactly what you want. Chrome is like new as is the top. I didn't use it but only tested it many years ago when I got it. Let me know if you are still looking. I just took a picture ...

We in Southern Oregon lost Chuck in the last part February at age 87. He suffered several health challenges. Many in Oregon and California may recall the great music he loved to play & sing at var ...

That was really good Dom. You are one very talented guy. I appreciate your efforts & gifts to our community.

Thank you so much guys. Jim B installed it for me many years ago. I don't recall the year but probably pre 2014. My recall is hazy but I don't think I received an installation disc.

Loved what you did with a busted hoof Very Happy

. It inspired me.

You captured some really good background sounds on the 13 string steel. Very pretty major seventh? ending.

I have two 130 specials. They are in excellent physical condition except one pops when powering on and off after I had new chips put in it. I kept the old chips. $150. The other is near perfect condit ...

Hi Bill, I have a gorgeous custom made Sierra S12. I was told only two of these were made by Sierra. It sounds beautiful. I bought it from a Forumite years ago. David Wright posted he had played it &a ...

I saw the program on the Waltons that you mentioned. There were some very good Hawaiian sounds on the Rick. I tried unsuccessfully to see credits for who the players or the group was.

Really great Music. Love his sound & skill. Thank you so very much for posting this.

Very tasteful. Not so intense as on Pete drakes “my bluest day” recording second half of the song. Maybe Mr. Drake was using something different?

Truly great. I think it was Bobby Garrett that started the trend of improvisation for this song when he did it for Hank Thompson and recorded on the record titled something like “Hank Thompson at th ...

Thank you so much for your efforts Bill. The gentleman really does well with all of those strings.

What a great rendition of “crazy.” He gets so much out of that little steel. anyone know how he had it tuned? Thank you so much for sharing. i’ve heard his rendition of this song by him on pedal ...

I have two 130s. I advertised one on the forum along with a lap steel that sold but the amp didn’t. I included a picture. That was two or three months ago. There was some good dialogue responses abo ...

I love the sound of those transition cords. It’s really satisfying when we can find something that sounds cool & you have done just that.

One thing I did to my carvin S8, wood body was too have holes drilled through the body to make it a string through. That anchored the bridge to the body better & maybe upgraded the tone.

To me that console is really unique. Many years ago I researched some of Carvin history because I bought a Kiesel D8 bakelite lapsteel, the forerunner of Carvin. If I recall correctly my research reve ...

Your efforts and creation has been a major contribution to the steel world. Thank you so very much!

I have been practicing & playing at a Senior center for several months using the 8 string Alkire tuning. I was so impressed by Claude Brownell‘s sounds that I tuned my tuning a half tone lower t ...
