They're probably better students than I would be. I'd just be blindly monkeying around.

There is more than one way, but the simplest to start with is from volume pedal out to Steel Dream input on the end of the unit, and from either Output 1 or Output 2 on the back of the unit to your am ...

The description in the Reverb ad makes it clear that this is a DIY project guitar.

I agree with what Dave said, above. Speakers are subjective. Many audiophiles and musicians swear that vintage tubes make a huge difference, but the ear hears what it hears. I'd opt for the vintage a ...

No doubt that the guitar is interesting Zane, but great googledy-moogledy, I think you could squeeze emotion from a red brick.

What model is it?

I don't see a model designation on the top of the pickup e.g., E66, EON etc. That is almost always a 10-1. That is also consistent with your DC Ohms reading compared to the above ...

I am not a big fan of so-called beginner steels. You will get a lot of mileage out of a good quality 3 X 4 pedal steel. It might even be all you will ever need. Different steels just feel...well...dif ...

Whether a pickup works well with an active or passive volume pedal is largely subjective. I use a Hilton VP most of the time. A couple of pickups you might similar to the 710 are the Lawrence XR16 and ...

He's a really good singer. I don't like the costumes, they're too circus-y for my taste, but many probably do. I expect they appeal to younger fans more than the more traditional crowd. As for the ste ...

How many pulls are too many? To me it depends on what you're really trying to achieve and whether it is feasible to expect reasonable results. Only you can decide what that is. It's your business if y ...

Great news, Junior! I'm looking forward to hearing you play again!

Herb, I'm pretty sure that's John Carroll on lead guitar. Mighty fine lip syncing gentlemen!

It's impressive the way Tommy was playing the fiddle parts on his Zum, too! That's talent!

I've had the privilege of hearing Johnny twice within the past month. The most recent was with Billy Mata in San Angelo, Texas, on Saturday, September 9. What a player!

Still open to trade.

Like Dale, I was always a 15" speaker guy. I have both TT12 and TT15. The TT12 changed that. It just does it all.
