Chuck played a Fender pedal steel. I have him on an old Golden Decade LP doing a tune called Mad Lad on pedal steel...I think he recorded a few other things. |

My daughter heard of a record where he is playing the steel guitar on the B side of the record. |

Pretty well known among steel players is Chuck's steel instrumental titled Deep Feeling which was on a side, I think. |

His album, Berry's on Top, has a song called Blues for Hawaiians which I've always liked. I think this is the song he's playing in the video posted above by the original poster.

Deep Feeling was the B side of School Days, released in 1957. |

The DVD Hail, Hail Rock & Roll has Chuck doing the solo outro on his Fender, I can't remember which model he played, at the end of the show. Pretty special. |
