Yann, thanks but I dearly believe that its going to take more than a set of
strings to sound like you.. Very kind thought on your part though. You have
a real talent pal, something I missed when it was passed out. LOL
With ax in hand and it aint no Reso

Hi,
I'm playing a maple W/S.
I've been playing reso for a year or so, but I had been playing some lap
steel before. I have no idea what mode I am playing, I play this kind of
stuff by hear, I know barely enough music theory to be able to understand
minor and major relatives. Thank you very much for your kind comments on my
playing. There aren't many reso players (we're two in my area, actually, but
we haven't met yet) around so it's nice to know that I'm on the right track.
Joe, do you own a W/S as well? What I noticed is that the condtition of the
strings is really critical with that reso. With brand new strings it sounds
stellar, but as soon as the strings get used, after a couple of hours of
playing, it doesn't sound that good anymore. OK, that was a truism. But you
may want to try putting new strings on. It might help.
Yann
