Iâ€™m persuaded for sure! I would love â¤ï¸ to learn this beautiful old tune the William way!

Gorgeous song and your arrangement makes it alive for sure! Your comment about the â€œdecliningâ€ popularity of the pedal steel, William, is SAD ðŸ˜ž, but unfortunately true.

Great song William!!! Looking forward to learning that one week after next. Also, would make a perfect song for some of the newer steel players that may be checking out your web site. (By The Way: ...

Great Song! William has provided to me, and I bet for others, the CONFIDENCE needed to be able to play this instrument without going completely insane while trying to learn on it. Iâ€™m â€œ ...

ALL of these old sacred and spiritual hymns are beautiful and are brought to life with William sitting behind the pedal Steel-this one especially! I firmly believe that Williamâ€™s name would ha ...

Lots of renditions of Silver Wings on pedal steel across the Internet. There are NONE out their any prettier than the arrangement William has put together for us on STEEL-IN Techniques............ Re ...

Beautiful as usual. William gets the very best and the most beautiful sound out of each and every string he touches. Just amazing. In part, his skill set for sure but also in how he arranges the so ...

Wow! Thatâ€™s another beauty. It just keeps getting better and better. I did NOT say easier and easierâ€”just better better. Actually these Technique Exercises are a tremendous help in l ...

Ahhhh! Well Said, George. That makes me want to sign up again.

If you own a Pedal Steel, two things are for sure:
(1). You've made a substantial investment
(2). You are serious about learning to play.

Now, to seal the deal that will give you a lifetime of ...

Loving these CORD Technique Exercises this week! This PS is like a huge puzzle. Every piece of what we learn in these weekly lessons will show up in something we play, sooner or later. There is abs ...

YEAH! Cord Study--This is going to be Great Stuff!
Hopefully, I won't get embarrassed anymore. Few of the guys I play with ask me, "hey Gary! What cord you in?" I generally say, "b ...

Oh Yeah! The one and only George Jones! Arrangement beautifully done. Every single song of yours, William, has at least one or more of the "steel technique" lessons in them.
I see how ...

Ahhhhhhh------That one gets the GOLD!

Move that one high up on your list, William. Reminds me of my honkytaunk drinking days.
Although I'm a recovering alcoholic, I still want to learn this beauty. Played well by ya, William!

Another Awesome telecast lesson! All of these technique exercise are incorporated one way or another in each song we learn. Cannot express enough just how valuable that is.
I want to thank William ...

Thanks RK....I knew that but I panicked ( happens sometimes when I try to play these exercises) and I go brain dead. I'll remember this next time. William always provides a way for his steel followe ...

Ya' all--it's probably me. I wasn't able to connect to William's last Saturday broadcast. Well, I sorta connected. It said will play in a moment but never did. Anyone else?
Thanks/Gary

Yes Sir Re! Beautiful........The 26th (Friday) is my birthday. I'll play this one for the wife!

I'm not a good organizer, says the wife about me. However, I do try to do a better job when it comes to organizing the Sat. Broadcast Lessons each eeek. I've been placing the materials in plastic bi ...

Last Saturday's workshop was pretty special I thought. A touch of pedal steel Christmas music shared with us by William. I'm so glad he did the Christmas songs--I was hesitant in asking William to d ...

William, you may to start working OVERTIME for us. We're hungry to learn this thing. You've just got too much good stuff coming out!!!!!

Well, never thought I could ever love this song any more than I already did---that is (until) I heard William playing it. He gives it life. Sure enjoy grabbing those lower register strings and climb ...

BEAUTIFUL

Nice selection, Larry! It'd be mighty hard to pick a tune that William couldn't make you want'a learn. Pretty one Mr. William---Technique it, Tab it, and Post it. That will be another fun Saturday ...
