Hi all! This is my first topic post on the forum so fist off, greetings from one green player here in Cincinnati! My question is regarding backing tracks. I was informed that Mrs. John Hughey ( Jean I think is her name) sells, or, was at least at some point selling backing tracks to Johns music. However, I haven't been able to locate them on the web. As I said, I am very green to PSG (only 3 months of playing now) and I'm looking for backing tracks to learn and play with. Any help or advice is welome! Thanks all! _________________ 1981 Emmons P/P, P2P Bad Dawg 1x12, Benado Steel Dream, Goodrich L120 volume pedal & BJS bar |

ThAnks for the info. It would be nice to get them as MP3. I just am a huge Hughey fan and love some of his songs (sweet memories, look at us, etc). I tried getting David Hartley's track for sweet memories (I think he did it in the same key as when John played it with Dawn Sears) but I can't find David's backing tracks on cd baby, just his instrumental projects. Any other sites where I could get quality backing tracks would be appreciated. I know Mike Headrick has some, and Greg Cutshaw (I think that the spelling) but my knowledge is limited. Thanks for the reply! _________________ 1981 Emmons P/P, P2P Bad Dawg 1x12, Benado Steel Dream, Goodrich L120 volume pedal & BJS bar |

Welcome to the forum Jim. You know there are a lot of fine pickers in the Cincy area and you may be familiar with them, but in case you aren't, check out from the Northern Ky area around there:
Cameron Cochran with the Midwestern Swing. I think they still play at Japp's in Cincy a couple times a week. They have some great videos online too.
Also Chuck Rich still playing regularly at Bobby Mackey's over in Wilder Ky last I knew.
Fabulous steel players and great bands. |

Jerry I have met a couple guys through the forum, and I've known a fellow forum member, Tony Rankin, in miamisburg for years and he teaches me. I had no idea there were so many great PSG players in the area. Kenny holycross player on a gospel album I was part of years ago to and he is a tremendous talent. I'd lo a to see a pedal steel get together around here so I am thinking of trying to organize that. _________________ 1981 Emmons P/P, P2P Bad Dawg 1x12, Benado Steel Dream, Goodrich L120 volume pedal & BJS bar |

Thank you so much Bob. By the way if you ever want to donate that Franklin to a guitar poor fella give me a holler. Haha I love how Franklin's sound I wish they were still made because I would definitely save all of my nickels and dimes to get one. Maybe one day I will be able to find a used Franklin for my own. The very first pedal steel I ever heard was a Franklin played by a fellow Forum member Francis Chamberlain. What a beautiful tone and a beautiful guitar all around _________________ 1981 Emmons P/P, P2P Bad Dawg 1x12, Benado Steel Dream, Goodrich L120 volume pedal & BJS bar |

Think as long as you need to....Its worth the wait! Being green I am slowly finding out I am gonna need to upgrade my guitar sooner than later. Don't get me wrong, my GFI sounds great, but I just HAVE to get that string 1&2 raise! A fella sent me Paul Jr. Talking and explaining how to use that change and it's so nice. The student model has a 1 &7 change rather than a 1&2 ehich, apparently, guys don't use much anymote. But.....I'm gonna have to learn to play a bit first! Question, is it difficult to get used to a new copedent when buying a new guitar? Just curious if it would be better to wait to upgrade guitars or to do it soon so I can learn with more changes. _________________ 1981 Emmons P/P, P2P Bad Dawg 1x12, Benado Steel Dream, Goodrich L120 volume pedal & BJS bar |

I also am gonna need one of the Frabklin oedals yo get the 5,6 &10 whole tone lower (I think that's what it does) a wise man once said you get what you pay for. My student model GFI is a great starter guitar...economically and tone quality, played well too when someone who knows what they r doing is behind it. However, you csnt change the copedent which stinks. Why can't you change get the copedent? I don't know anything about doing such changes so can you tell me what prevents you from changing it? _________________ 1981 Emmons P/P, P2P Bad Dawg 1x12, Benado Steel Dream, Goodrich L120 volume pedal & BJS bar |

Jim -
Most of John Hughey's instructional / tablature courses included backing tracks.
Great stuff.
