GREAT ARTICLE! Thanx for sharing with us

All 3,200+ Forumites should email this writer from all over the world and let him know what an exceptionally fine job he did!

By doing so, he just might be inclinde to create some other general public type, interesting articles about OUR GUITAR!

We NEED all of this kind of favorable coverage/reporting that we can muster.

Great reading. Might be a useful platform for the NTSGA to send in a letter to the editor about Shot Jackson's role and lamentable absence of the Sho~Bro from the HOF. Just an idea...

Super article and the clips are great too!

If anyone has figured out how to save the videos to disk, would you please let me know. Every way I've tried, just saves a 1K link, not the actual .ram file.

Great Article! Covers everything pretty well.
Except Alvino Rey , playing his Gibson 6 pedal 9 string Electra-Harp in the early 40"s. But that wasn't really "country"..al

The writer said all steel players are geniuses. No wonder you guys think it's a great article.

I tried to e-mail the writer thanking him for a great article but it came back undeliverable. I used the address at the end of the article. Any one else have the same experience?

The steel is probably the most mysterious instrument to the general public and this article is a step in exposing this wonderful sound machine to the ignorant and uneducated.

Musta' gone through, i have'nt got any Undeliverables back...
