New upload today. I'm playing a 1930s 7-string Rickenbacker lap steel, A6 tuning. Hope you like it.

I've been working on this one out of your book, Doug. Wish I could play it like you do! Timely post for me. I've got some work to do!

Lot's of things to marvel over when watching you play. Tone, technique, arrangement...Is it me, or does anyone else just feel relaxed watching Doug play? Thanks for sharing.
