Okay everybody, this is my first steel video ever, so be gentle. I'm just noodling around, showing off the merits of the Jackson Blackjack. I did a few signature licks, and a bit of improv for the last minute or so. The last notes of the video are particularly flat, but I left them there anyway......'cause they're in Hugheyland, and nobody will ever play up there as good as our hero.

I'm going through a Goodrich L10K and a '77 Session 400, amp reverb. Please tell me what you think. I'd like to do a few more of these. The sound is not really great, but it's not bad for youtube. There seems to be a high end hiss on the sound, but I think the nature of the steel comes through.

Good job. The steel and the playing sound great. Very Happy If ever I can afford a new steel I`d look at the Jackson for sure.

It sure has a nice clean and crisp sound, how about a little Mansion on the Hill, or Blue Jade for comparsion? Regards Dale

Thanks guys........Dale, I'm more of a licks and runs kind of guy. I don't even know Mansion on the Hill and can only stand with my jaw dropped when Buddy does Blue Jade. But hey.....maybe I will consider it a challenge and work one of them up this week!
