Lesson from the master

Wed Jan 29, 2020 9:49 am

Anyone playing non pedal or Hawaiian steel guitar should watch this video as it is a mine of information on all aspects of steel playing and an approach to it.
This is very informative for beginners and more experienced players will learn from it as well, I came across it on utube and think it well worth sharing, so enjoy.
P. S. This is your chance to learn slants on non pedal J. D! :P

A most important lesson. He covers most of what you need to know and these are the techniques that I employ except for one. Let us not forget that he is a Hawaiian player therefore he will constantly slide from one chord to another. A pedal steel player would not necessarily do that. Having said that I will be listening to this again and again to absorb what he has said. He is not known as being the master of touch and tone for nothing.

Thanks for that Robert.

Come on JD. Time to start learning mate. :o :o :o
