I got inspired to try tabbing a Buddy Cage steel break after reading Dave Hepworth's topic on Buddy's technique. There's also a great video posted by Pete Burak on the thread demonstrating Buddy's "slide up the ladder" technique. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=337555

"Sweet Lovin' One" is off the New Riders' "Powerglide" album. I'm sure there's a bunch of us that beat this album to death playing it when it came out in 1972. The break is at 1:46 and Buddy is smokin' as usual - get that bouncing right hand ready! Hope this is close...the notes go by really fast. Questions and comments always welcome.

Here it is on youtube:

Thanks for posting, Jeff.

I've always done the very first part on strings 2 and 4, beginning in the 12th fret, and it's pretty easy to play at tempo:

stg 2
stg 4, then slide up 1 fret while still ringing

Repeat that three-note figure a few times... it's the same lick Cage does in Mary Lou and a few other NRPS tunes.

Thanks, Tucker..the way you play it makes more sense and seems a little easier to play than my long single string line.

and thank you all for your posts Smile
