I still prefer an amp with speakers but with most of the money gigs using in ears a full amp is not needed.

They're really going overboard with the in ear monitors these days. I saw a guy singing o ...

I Love mine!

Was flipping channels this AM and saw this on the Hoda & Jenna show on NBC. Sorry about the quality of the picture but the steeler was playing a GFI...just wondering if any of you know the player. ...

Whichever is the cheapest.

I just use an old hand towel I haven't washed in about 10 yrs.

Glad to hear you are doing better and are able to move close to family. I was born and raised in Birmingham and at times I miss the Alabama I was raised in. A lot of the folks that live there miss tho ...

So Gary,

We will be in MOLINO, FL, just across the AL/FL line below Flomaton, AL after we move. This is our daughters farm. We will stay there until we find a place in Central FL.

She says we ...

Gary it sounds great that you are moving back home we welcome you back home with arms open wide when you get settled in we can get some gospel jam session going I live in atmore Al about 60 miles from ...

Gary, that sounds like a great move to me, and please accept my best wishes for your recovery & continued good health.

Having lived in western North Carolina for 40+ years it's time to head to my home state of Alabama. I moved to NC in 1974 right out of high school and begin an 18 yr run of playing steel with the King ...

Dale, you need to borrow my "Freeloader" I believe that would help.

If this has been discussed please direct me to a link.

Other than the "Franklin drop" what other changes do you or would you use the 4th pedal for E9th? If you do.

Gonna be a great show! I would love to attend just to hear Wimpy and the other GREAT players!

Rex is a top notch steeler/musician and first class guy!

Played through a MM many years ago, I liked it, but just didn't have the tone, etc I really wanted. Pawn shop? If they are asking $400 for it they probably paid $150. Lay $300 CASH on the counter and ...

Do what I did...went to the local pawn shop, bought one for $40, hooked my BOSS delay/reverb to it....perfect!

Jim, we had this issue often when I was in southern gospel music.

It was usually up to the promoter booking us. It varied. The most common was 120 miles or a 2 hr drive within a month (sometime 2 ...

Well deserved!! Congrats!

Sorry, I don't have a video but I absolutely love this amp. Lots of power. Love the built in delay (I don't use the chorus).

I tried several (I will not say which one's) and I decided on this one. ...

Great friend and singer,

He loved the steel guitar as much as Vince Gill. Every time I picked he would be in the wing of the stage just staring at me while playing and listening to every note and ...

To the best of my knowledge those backing-plates were an after-market part. Well, maybe, because I got mine from Jim Aycoth at the 2002 ISGC. It was certainly not a standard fitting but an 'extra'. ...

Barry,
don't know the answer to your question but my 76 P/P had a raised logo and I purchased it new from Emmons. I'm guessing probably the late 60's-early 70's. I'm sure there are others on here th ...

Just had to post a picture of this beauty I found. After playing my 76 Emmons P/P all of thses years I always wanted a (Jack Strayhorn) all pull Legrande. Well found an incredible deal on this showroo ...

I don't think that was Dean. Dean has been having some health issue's lately.

So, make a decision on your purchase before you spend your hard to come by money on a steel amp and you'll find out who has been and is still supporting the steel guitar community.

Mike Brown
