First song on pedal steel
Hi everyone, I’m a newbie to this. Hope this is in the right section. I’ve been learning some songs from You Tube, still have a long way to go but having fun! Got a long way to go.

Thank you, Sleep walk is a great classic, I remember it from when my dad played back in the late 50’s and through the 60’s. This Domland Stereo guitar was built in Denver and apparently not a whole lot of them were made. This one has cable operated pull system that raises or lowers the string. It also has two jacks to run as stereo but I bypassed it and run it from just the single jack. It was a bugger to get all set up and working again . I’d love to have a lever type sometime when I can swing it. There’s a thread on here somewhere that talks about Domland guitars if you’re interested.Ian Rae wrote:Interesting - I don't think I heard of Domland before.
Sleepwalk needs to be played - keep up the good work!

Thanks for the kind comment, I’ve been making a few improvements since posting, worked it out from a few different You Tube videos.Scott Baumann wrote:Glen,
Nice work. That is a completely different arrangement than the one I've been working thru. Is that from tab or did you work that out on your own?

Thank you, it gets very frustrating sometimes but also so rewarding when you play just a little better each time. I’m sure my wife absolutely hates Sleepwalk and the Steel Guitar Rag! I’m learning from others mostly on you tube. I’ve learned a lot from Aaron on his SteelPicking channel. Lots of great info here as well. Thanks for the support!Larry Dering wrote:Glen, well done. Takes a great deal of effort and patience to execute a classic piece of music. Keep up the journey and enjoy the rewards as they come.
