Herb Steiner C6 Chord Essay

Post by Herb Steiner »

I've been getting emails and PMs about where to access my essay about the changes I use for the C6 tuning and where I find them on the standard Emmons 5p/4k copedent.

Rather than contact me directly for the url, here is the link and it can be found here by using "Search" on the Forum.

Son, we live in a world with walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with steel guitars. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg?

This essay is one of the best learning tools ever created for the C6 pedal steel guitar. It’s been so helpful to me over the years. Thank you Herb, for creating and sharing it.
Mostly Pre-1970 guitars.

Thanks Herb for giving us the C6 chord essay, it really helped me when I started on C6. I still look at it and it's been 15 years. Thanks again

When I'm stumped to find a "given chord", and I often am, this has been a great help ... Thanks Herb

Three relatively concise C6th road-maps were a great help to me several years ago when I ventured away from E9 and took the plunge into C6th.

My grateful thanks to Herb, Jim Cohen and, of course, Buddy Emmons; each introductory method is clearly expressed and entirely logical. All three helped demystify the ten-string armrest for me. :)
