Nice playing indeed.

And interesting picking hand technique.

That’s Dave Biller, a terrific musician (Biller & Wakefield and much more).

Nice call Mike - he looked familiar but I was drawing a blank.

I think this video will shed some light on Dave's technique. He is a hero, man.

Great musician and the way he's worked out to play steel really works well - shades of Bobby Koeffer!

For those who may not know--Jason was in Asleep at the Wheel for many years and the guitarist, Rick McCrae, was in George Strait's band a long time. Lots of talented pickers in these parts.
