My kids got me a video camera for my birthday and I am having fun with it. It is also a great way to leasn from mistakes. My mistakes are often due to focusing on singing or playing and the other one suffers I Can sing better but lose breath support when looking down

Hi Dom,
I just watched your video and it was wonderful. It was everything that I love about steel guitar. If I may ask, was that on the 10 string you built and what tuning did you use.
P.s. I speak with Rick (Fredrick) Greeno everyday.
Thanks,
John |

Dom, that video is fantabulous!!!!! It reflects your warm personality and if there's putting your heart into the words and music, that is it. It brought tears to my eyes!!!!

John;
The steel I am playing in the video, is my latest 12 string with a George L E66 pickup. It's just like my 10 string but I added two higher strings to give me an Augmented 5th triad on strings 1,2 &3. All of the steels I build start out with the basic A6th six string tuning (LOW to HI C# E F# A C# E)in the center and then I add strings on the outside to give me more chord options. Say Hi to Rick for me!
Dom
